Isle of Wight
This trip is a very popular destination allowing walks up the river to Newport and down the river to the Folly Inn. A late Friday afternoon trip to Island Harbour, which is one of the Solent’s best-kept secrets. Conveniently situated on the River Medina, two miles south of Cowes, it’s one of the most picturesque riverside locations. This is a chance to go through a lock without it being too challenging after a gentle trip up the Medina past the previous venue of Shepards Wharf.
Sat within this tranquil setting is ‘The Breeze Restaurant & Bar’. Exclusively operated by the marina, The Breeze is open daily and offers a quality breakfast, lunch and dinner menu at very reasonable prices. For more information please click here.
There is a new cycle track from the marina into Newport, the County Town of the Isle of Wight and riverside walks, ideal for ramblers and dog walkers. The marina is also convenient for Island bus routes, making Island Harbour a great central base from which to discover the island.
This is not a trip to be missed if you would like to expand your boating skills and wander further afield on the Isle of Wight.
