Then it’s simply a short 5 minute scenic ferry trip across the harbour to Gosport. Come by yacht, and there’s a choice of three excellent deep water fully equipped marinas. There are ferry connections with France & Spain (Brittany Ferries: www.brittany-ferries.co.uk ) plus the Isle of Wight (Wightlink: www.wightlink.co.uk & Hovertravel: www.hovertravel.co.uk ) and the Channel Islands (Condor Ferries: www.condorferries.co.uk). Southampton Airport is a short drive away along the M27, and if you are driving Gosport is well signposted from the motorway. To help you make the most of your visits, our friendly, well trained staff at the Tourist Information Centre can help with accommodation bookings, guides, and local information.

Caption 3 HMS Alliance: RN Submarine Museum Impressive Heritage Find out what lurks beneath the waves at the Royal Navy Submarine Museum. Take a tour of Britain’s only surviving WW2 era ocean-going submarine HMS Alliance to discover what it was like to live and work on a submarine. Learn about the weapons used by the Royal Navy at Explosion! - Museum of Naval Firepower an award- winning museum of naval warfare set within the 18th century buildings of the Royal Navy’s former armaments depot at Priddy’s Hard. Follow the 2 mile Millennium Waterfront Trail that links these two sites to enjoy spectacular views across Portsmouth Harbour taking in the Falkland Gardens and the ‘Timespace’ sundial. The Museum of Diving showcases the best range of military, commercial and recreational diving equipment in Europe (perhaps the World!). Whilst just along the coast the Hovercraft Museum in Lee-on-the-Solent is home to the only collection of historic hovercraft in the world (open to visitors by appointment). Both are run by a dedicated team of enthusiasts. Hovercraft Museum 4 Explosion - Museum of Naval Firepower Moving away from the maritime theme, another fascinating option is to wander through the 1642 Living History Village to see ‘villagers’ dressed in period costumes demonstrating the skills of the blacksmith, lace-makers and weavers.

  • Towards an International City of Culture
    Towards an International City of Culture Southampton City Council Arts and Heritage Strategic Vision Executive Summary This Strategic Vision defines Southampton City Council’s strategic role regarding Arts and Heritage provision within the wider context of the City of Southampton Strategy towards 2026, council priorities, the Southampton Heritage and Arts People initiative (SHAPe), and the sub-regional Partnership for Urban South Hampshire (PUSH). Southampton is a thriving and growing city with a diverse and dynamic population. However, these developments are in pockets and other parts of the city (economically, physically, socially) remain significantly deprived. We want to transform Southampton from being a gateway to a place of destination where people want to visit, put down roots and engage in community. The City has a fantastic opportunity over the next twenty years to transform its cultural offer and create an overall vibrant cultural soul, a sense of identity and uniqueness that connects people to each other and to Southampton as place. Its rich cultural makeup, internationally important heritage story and nationally dynamic arts and creative scene provide an inspirational resource for exploitation. The significance of Southampton within the Partnership for Urban South Hampshire (PUSH) regional development area will ensure that this potential can be realised particularly within the context of Living Places. Culture is critical to Southampton’s economic development, health and wellbeing and the creation of an attractive image of the city as a place in which people want to live, work and play. Without a vibrant cultural soul, Southampton becomes a divided, anonymous, modern and transient settlement with little civic pride or unique sense of place, and without an attractive, sustainable and stimulating environment that people value.
