The Brooks Local Nature Reserve is a 19.1-hectare (47-acre) Local Nature Reserve on the northern outskirts of Bognor Regis in West Sussex. It is owned and managed by Arun District Council.[1][2]

The Brooks has extensive grassland, reedbeds, ponds and newly planted woodland. One area has been turned into a dog-free wildlife sanctuary for ground-nesting birds. The site is flooded every winter, which makes it a good habitat for wetland flora and fauna.[1]

The site is open to the public.
