The town of East Cowes sits in the north of Isle of Wight, on the east bank of River Medina. The neighbouring town of Cowes is connected by the Cowes Floating Bridge. Within East Cowes there are a number of fascinating attractions, including the historic site of Osbourne House, where Queen Victorian once stayed, the classic Boat Museum where you can learn about wonderful stories with beautiful boats and East Cowes Heritage Centre, providing an insight into the area. One of the main draws to the town is the East Cowes Marina, a quiet neighbour to the busy marinas in Cowes. The 360 berth marina is located just 500m south of the Cowes floating bridge, and is open from 8am to 8pm in the summer and 8am to 5pm in the winter.

The Isle of Wight, with its beaches, unspoiled scenery, rich heritage and over 500 miles of award-winning public footpaths is a walker’s paradise, or if sailing is your thing, the renowned annual Cowes Week is not to be missed.
