Shanklin

Shanklin, the Wight's most idyllic seaside resort, has a delightfully quaint Old Village with thatched pubs, sweet shops, and traditional tearooms. At the base of the cliffs is a family-friendly beach where you can rent kayaks and other water sports equipment in front of a row of whitewashed guesthouses, cafés, and restaurants. Simply put, Shanklin has some of the best beaches in the United Kingdom. The town also offers plenty of traditional pubs, as well as classic seaside shops selling everything from teacakes to rock. There are also plenty of family-friendly attractions, including crazy golf!


Don't miss Shanklin Chine, a mossy gorge with a waterfall at the top, a twisting nature trail, and fascinating World War II military connections, while in Shanklin. After your walk, stop for afternoon tea at the award-winning Rylestone Gardens and observe nature in action. Do you want to have some more beach fun? Continue down to Sandown Beach, which has an amusement pier.
