I have been to the Isle of Wight mainly on school trips. Its one of the most beautiful parts of Britain. Just 23 miles by 13 miles, the island has some beautiful award winning beaches.
- Pros:Beaches, Chines
- Cons:Messing about at the ferry port.

Nice to read your pages on the IOW..I spent my mispent youth there and grew up there so I get homesick just reading your tips..Your right about it being 1 of the best places in the UK. Tim
Looks like a great place to have visited on school trips. Not sure what chines are, though.
Nice page--I haven't seen much about this place on VT...what's "crazy golf"? :)
I like your page! I also went to Isle of Wight when I lived in England. I would so like to go back, it was so nice!
