West Wight

The West Wight is a region of the Isle of Wight that offers stunning natural beauty and rich cultural heritage. From the spectacular beach of Freshwater, where the white cliffs frame the turquoise sea, to the iconic Needles Rocks and Alum Bay with its multicoloured sand, the West Wight is a feast for the eyes. Visitors can also explore the history and literature of the area, such as the Tennyson Monument on top of Tennyson Down, where the poet laureate used to live and walk, or the charming town of Yarmouth, with its ferry terminal, gift shops and restaurants. The West Wight also boasts a variety of walks for all levels of fitness and interest, such as the former railway line from Yarmouth to Freshwater or the coastal path along Colwell Bay. The West Wight is a place where nature and culture meet in harmony.
