The Solent is packed with a fabulous choice of destinations to suit your mood. For somewhere quiet, why not pick up a vistors buoy or drop anchor in Newtown Creek or the Beaulieu River for a swim and lunch?

There’s a huge choice of great restaurants and cafes in Cowes, Yarmouth, Hamble, Lymington and Bembridge. And if you fancy a night away on board, all these ports have bookable marinas.

Plus you can head further afield to Chichester, Swanage and Poole once you have completed the relevant induction sessions.
