Things to do on the Isle of Wight

As the largest island in England, the Isle of Wight is well known for its gorgeous, rugged coastline, fascinating maritime history and mild climate. But there's so much more to be discovered by exploring yourself. If you love to sail you can take part in the famed Cowes Week regatta, or if gardening is your thing why not take a trip to the blooming botanical garden where plants thrive on the island's microclimate, or if palaeontology is your passion then the cliffs offer some of the richest sources of dinosaur fossils in Europe. With museums, breathtaking nature and compelling history, the Isle of Wight is not to be missed.
