What's on the Island?

Seaview

Seaview is renowned for sailing. As well as a leading yacht club, the village has a number of public slipways, which makes it an ideal location for messing about in boats. The village is also a centre for other water sports including windsurfing, water-skiing and fishing.

The beaches at Seaview are perfect for a traditional seaside holiday. There is sand for building castles, rocks from which to go crabbing and, at low tide, rock pools for shrimping. Priory Bay, possibly the best beach on the Island, is just a 15 minute walk away from HIGH TIDE, along a peaceful footpath.

In recent years, the Island has attracted avid foodies. It has everything from Michelin-standard dining to beach cafes, many featuring locally produced meat, fish, vegetables, cheeses and wines. The nearest award winning establishment, The Seaview Hotel and Restaurant, is just a short stroll away from HIGH TIDE.

There are regular ferry services from Portsmoth to Fishbourne. Seaview is about a 15 minute drive from Fishbourne.

Isle of Wight

There are a huge number of attractions, making the Isle of Wight a genuine all year round destination. There are fun parks, animal and bird sanctuaries, a dinosaur museum, a steam railway, historic houses (including Queen Victoria’s seaside retreat), displays of pirate gold and silver, medieval castles and even a 1950s British rocket testing facility!

The Island is also popular with those who wish to get away from it all. At anytime of the year, one can enjoy the extensive network of coastal and other footpaths through areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty or simply stroll along the Island’s many and varied beaches.
