About

Sit back, relax and unwind whilst taking in all the picturesque views that the Solent has to offer.

You will sail out from Gosport, passing the Victorian Palmerston Forts and onwards to the entrance of Southampton Water, before turning for the world-famous sailing venue of Cowes. Tracing the northern shore of the Isle of Wight from Queen Victoria’s summer residence of Osbourne House to the summer seaside resort of Ryde, you'll then head homeward, passing Spitbank Fort and Southsea before concluding with views of Portsmouth Harbour (taking in HMS Warrior, HMS Victory and the home of the Royal Navy).

This event forms part of the Gosport Ferry's summer cruise calendar. Search 'Scenic Cruises' for full details on all the other events taking place this summer.

All cruises start and finish from the ferry terminal at Gosport, but visitors from Portsmouth get free return passage between Portsmouth and Gosport if travelling to join one of the cruises.
