Bournemouth, Portsmouth and The Isle of Wight

Depart from your home area in the morning travelling to Bournemouth, with lunch and refreshments on the way, arriving late afternoon at the Suncliff Hotel where tea/coffee is served on arrival. We enjoy a day in Portsmouth. The Old Town offers much of interest – the beautiful Portsmouth Cathedral, Spice Island, haunt of smugglers and press gangs of many years ago, a good choice of pubs to relax and watch the boats, and more. A recent addition to the Portsmouth skyline and well worth a visit is the Spinnaker Tower. Marvel at the views over the South Coast and Isle of Wight. On a clear day you can see 23 miles. Take the opportunity to enjoy a coffee in the Café in the Clouds. Afterwards we have free time in Gunwharf Quays, a designer shopping outlet with seafront bars and restaurants. On another day we take a ride to the ferry terminal in Lymington where we catch the Wightlink sailing across to Yarmouth. We have a tour around the island, taking in Ryde, Sandown, Shanklin, Ventnor and the South Coast, to Freshwater and the Needles before returning to Yarmouth for the return sailing across to the mainland. We also have two free days at leisure to relax and enjoy the delights of Bournemouth. After breakfast on the final day, we head home, stopping on the way for lunch and refreshments.
