Experience the majestic Needles Landmark Attraction on the Isle of Wight, easily reached for a memorable car-free coastal adventure.
Nestled on the Isle of Wight’s dramatic western tip, The Needles Landmark Attraction offers an unforgettable day out, all easily accessible without a car. Imagine gliding effortlessly down to Alum Bay beach on the iconic chairlift, marvelling at the vibrant multi-coloured sands and the dazzling chalk stacks of the Needles themselves. Once at the bottom, consider a serene boat trip for breathtaking views of the lighthouse and unique rock formations from the water.
Back at the clifftop, delve into the creative arts at Alum Bay Glass or the Isle of Wight Sweet Manufactory, or craft your own colourful sand souvenir. Nearby, the National Trust’s Needles Old Battery provides a fascinating glimpse into history and incredible panoramic vistas. Getting here is part of the charm; hop on a Southern Vectis bus, like the scenic Route 7 from Newport, which drops you right at the attraction, letting you soak in the island’s beauty along the way.
