Join us on a day trip to the Isle of Wight this summer as we travel via luxury coach, our journey includes all coach travel and return ferry crossings, ensuring a hassle-free, memorable experience.

Needles

A perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. We will start our journey with a visit to the iconic Needles Attraction Centre, where breath taking views and adventurous activities await.

The Needles:- Since Victorian times visitors have been attracted to Alum Bay to marvel at its geological wonders. At the time access to the beach was via a path through the Chine. Now visitors like to take the Chairlift for an exhilarating ride offering spectacular views of the coloured cliffs, The Needles Rocks and Lighthouse which takes you down onto the beach.

For a close-up view of the Needles Rocks and Lighthouse and panoramic views of the coloured Alum Bay cliffs, take one of the pleasure boats from the jetty for a dramatic trip around the landmarks. Choose between a 20-minute slow cruise to take in the stunning scenery at a leisurely pace, or opt for a 15-minute fast trip on the high-speed rib boat. Whichever one you choose, you’re guaranteed a breathtaking Isle of Wight experience. (Weather permitting).

Both the chairlift, boat trip and other activities will incur additional cost

Shanklin

Next stop we will unwind in the charming seaside town of Shanklin, with its picturesque beaches, cosy cafes and bars. Shanklin is a traditional seaside town located on the south-east coast of the Isle of Wight. Nestled in the bay between Sandown and Ventnor, Shanklin regularly tops the charts for the number of sunshine hours

Shanklin Chine

For those who wish to visit this natural beauty and wonder. Carved by Mother Nature’s own hands over thousands of years, the stunning tree lined gorge that is Shanklin Chine cuts its mark from Shanklin Old Village to the sandy beach and Esplanade, far below.

Shanklin Chine is a haven for wildlife. The steep sides and flowing water provide a mini sanctuary for mammals, birds and insects alike. Enjoy a cup of tea or piece of cake in the onsite tearoom, where you may be lucky enough to have a friendly visitor join you.

Please note: the Chine may close on days when the weather is bad for health and safety reasons, this will be communicated on their Facebook page.

To visit the chine there will be an additional fee of £12.95

Yarmouth

A small and charming town with a lovely harbour, a wooden pier, a castle and a country park

The approach from Lymington on the Wightlink ferry is perhaps the prettiest of all the Solent crossings and it is the second smallest town in Great Britain, a characterful community of Yarmouth.

From its lovely harbour to its ancient church and picturesque pier, this West Wight town has something for everyone.

There are plenty of things to do, some great pubs, cafes and restaurants, and lots of super attractions in the area for everyone. Yarmouth is a very special place to visit.
