Thorney Island is a distinctive tidal island or peninsula situated within Chichester Harbour, in the Chichester district of West Sussex, England, lying immediately south of Emsworth. A significant portion of the island is occupied by a military base, Baker Barracks, which largely restricts public access to much of its interior. Despite its military presence, the island is renowned for its natural beauty and importance as a wildlife habitat, particularly for birds, forming part of the Chichester Harbour Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This unique combination of military use and ecological significance defines its local character.
