Inside A Hovertravel Hovercraft - A Bumpy Ride From Ryde To Southsea - June 2018 | kittikoko
Hovertravel is a ferry company operating from Southsea, Portsmouth to Ryde, Isle of Wight, UK. It is the only passenger hovercraft company currently operating in Britain since Hoverspeed stopped using its craft in favour of catamarans. Hovertravel is now the world's oldest hovercraft operator, and this service is believed to be unique in western Europe. The service commenced operations in 1965 and currently operates two hovercraft on a single route between Ryde and Southsea, although it formerly operated also between Ryde and Gosport, and Cowes and Southampton.
The service operates between Southsea Common on the English mainland and Ryde Transport Interchange on the Isle of Wight: the crossing time of less than 10 minutes makes it the fastest route across The Solent from land to land.

Leo's Top Tip: Ensure you arrive early enough to ask if you can get on an earlier service, it's usually not a problem and means you can be totally flexible with your travel plans. Though don't arrive too early, as the waiting area is very small and gets very hot and busy in the Summer months.
Equipment Used:
~ Canon EOS 750D DSLR |
~ SIGMA 18-300MM LENS |
