BOAT TRIPS
Discover the breathtaking beauty and rich history of the Isle of Wight's south coastline from the best vantage point - the water. Our 12 seater catamaran, Penelope, offers you a unique and immersive way to explore this stunning location, known for its dramatic cliffs, secluded coves and picturesque coastal town.

All trips depart from Ventnor Haven on the Esplanade in Ventnor.

  • 1 HOUR GUIDED BOAT TRIP - Travel West, passing Steephill Cove, Woody Bay, Spindles Folly, and onto the picturesque St.Catherines Lighthouse!
  • 3 HOUR NEEDLES TRIP - This 3 hour boat trip takes you from Ventnor, along the Island's dramatic southern coastline and on to The Needles. Along the way, we explore sections of the coastline that are only accessible by boat, revealing dramatic rock formations and remote beaches untouched by roads.
  • ROUND THE ISLAND GUIDED BOAT TRIP - Our four-hour adventure takes you west along the island’s stunning coastline, with a knowledgeable local guide sharing fascinating insights into the area's wildlife, history, and hidden gems. We pass The Needles and into The Solent, then past Osborne House where we pause to enjoy tea and lunch in Osborne Bay. The trip then continues east, past Sandown, Shanklin and back to Ventnor.
  • PRIVATE CHATER - With private charters, you choose the departure location and the destination. Perhaps you'd like to explore a specific part of the Island, cruise in style to a seaside restaurant for lunch, or simply enjoy a tailor-made day at sea, we’ll make it happen. It's great for family occasions, birthdays, and school trips.
