Neighbourhood highlights

Cowes is the sailing centre of the UK. The world famous Round the Island Race and Cowes Week take place each year. They are the highlight of the packed yachting calendar centred on Cowes. As well as being a magnet for tourists Cowes and the River Medina is the centre of thriving boatbuilding industries, so crucial to the Isle of Wight economy in the past and present.

There are bags of things to do on each bank of the Medina and the easiest way to get between the two is via the vehicle and foot passenger chain ferry that only takes a few minutes to link the two towns.

Things to Do
Stroll along the High Street, Parade and Esplanade for wonderful views of the bustling harbour and across The Solent. See the prestigious yacht clubs and, if you are lucky, hear the small cannon at the Royal Yacht Squadron fire to start or finish another top-level yacht race.

Find out about the boating history of Cowes by visiting Cowes Maritime Museum in the middle of the town, while the Sir Max Aitken Museum provides another fascinating glimpse into the town’s story.
