Places to visit with Bluetooth Private RIB Charter
River Hamble
Rather than turning starboard out of Hamble Point Marina, turn to port and keep to 6 knots to enjoy a cruise along River Hamble. To make the most out of this cruising area it would be best to enjoy at high tide. If it’s not high tide you will only be able to venture as far as River Hamble Country Park.
Newtown Creek
Newtown Creek is between Cowes and Yarmouth on the Isle of Wight. It’s a National Trust anchorage and a great place to drop anchor relax, swim, paddleboard and spot colonies of Seals.

There are a few good reasons to visit Portsmouth Harbour, although one may require a little investigation before you set off. Home to the shops and restaurants at Gunwharf Quays, Portsmouth Historic Dockyard and the Royal Navy surface ships.
