Woody Bay

Highlight • Natural

Woody Bay is favorably sheltered from the wind. During storms, you can easily observe the waves coming into the bay from the wooden stairs leading into the bay and, at high tide, sweeping over the entire bay.

View of the Isle of Wight Coastal Cliffs

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

A very beautiful part of the Coastal Path connects the two small, rather inconspicuous but still very attractive bays. Pure relaxation away from the island hotspots is guaranteed!

Spyglass Inn

Very good food, seafood, homemade pies, and more, a good wine list, and a good beer selection. But above all, a great place with a beautiful view over Ventnor Bay.
