Ferries

Meet our fleet

Our fleet of ships includes six vehicle and passenger ferries and two foot passenger-only FastCats, serving our three convenient routes between the Isle of Wight and Hampshire on the mainland.

They each come with excellent facilities, including pet-friendly areas and sun decks from which to take in the stunning views across the Solent. Our Victoria of Wight and St Clare ferries also come with a children’s play area – ideal for keeping them entertained during your crossing. For your comfort, all are non-smoking vessels.

You can sample a piece of the Island on board each of our vehicle ferries, with an assortment of Isle of Wight-sourced food and drinks available in our Wight Taste cafés.
