Isle of Wight

The Isle of Wight is an island territory in the south of Great Britain, which is a ceremonial non-metropolitan county of England and is part of the South East Anglia region. The capital of the island and the largest city is Newport.

The size of the Isle of Wight is small - 37 kilometers long and 21 kilometers wide. From the main British island to Wight and back can be reached by ferries and a hovercraft. The island gained fame in the Victorian era when it became a resort with outstanding natural beauty, picturesque landscapes and the world-famous yacht club in the city of Cowes with its annual regatta.

The island has attractions for almost every taste: Saxon churches, Norman castles and even ancient medieval estates in the style of the Victorian era. All this is adjacent to the wonderful nature. There are mysterious caves, and cozy well-groomed beaches, and proud rocks. Separately, a steam railway stands out, which delights tourists of any age.

At different times, various celebrities chose the island for their holiday.
