Yapton is a village and civil parish in the Arun District of West Sussex, England, three miles (4.8 km) north east of Bognor Regis at the intersection of the B2132 and B2233 roads.
Yapton lies on the coastal plain south west of Arundel, between the South Downs and the sea. St Mary the Virgin parish church, 13th century or earlier in origin, is in the centre of the village.
