  More than a thousand boats set off from Cowes at dawn on one day in early summer and sail the fifty miles round. The Needles at mid-morning is the place to stand. Kilde ↗

  Dark-bellied brent geese arrive from the Siberian coast onto the harbours at Newtown, Bembridge and the Yar, with godwits and curlew on the same mud. The estuaries are why you would bring binoculars here in January. Kilde ↗

  Attractions shut for winter

  1. nov – 15. mar

  Most of the paid attractions, the seasonal cafes and a lot of the seafront hotels close from November to spring, and the ferry timetable thins. The coast path and the downs do not. Kilde ↗
