take the Itchenor ferry across and walk the 40 mins or so to Bosham Quay - it avoids the traffic and is a great walk .. Bosham has a historic church and cafe / pub - legend has it that this is where King Canute tried to command the tide - clearly didn't work as the tide races in here and catches unaware drivers to this day!
