Sandown and Shanklin boast two of the most popular beaches on the Isle of Wight and can be walked from end to end, right around Sandown Bay starting or finishing at Yaverland, the location of Sandown Zoo and one of the most popular locations for Windsurfing and Kitesurfing on the Isle of Wight. Yaverland is also the starting point for one of the most spectacular walks on the Island on to the top of Culver down.
From Sandown pier you can walk along the esplanade, passing several cafes and a watersports centre before coming to Hope beach and then Shanklin beach where you will find several bars, pubs and cafes, a large amusement and activity centre and the famous lift, taking you onto the Shanklin - Sandown cliff path overlooking the whole of Sandown Bay with just a short walk to the shops and the 'Olde Village'.

Ventnor is a small town clinging to the steep hillside of St Boniface Down with hairpin bend roads and paths leading to the beach, and is not short of attractions. Ventnor harbour is ideally situated near several pubs, hotels and cafes that occupy Ventnor seafront. The cliff path boasts more spectacular views out into the English Channel and across the headland to Luccombe.
Going out of Ventnor and incidently not far from the famous Blackgang Chine, you can visit the Ventnor Botanical Gardens and smugglers museum, or watch a game of cricket on a hot summers afternoon.
St Boniface down, directly behind Ventnor, has its fair share of spectacular walks and views and at 787feet, on a clear day, you can see right across the Isle of Wight to Freshwater and easily make out the cliffs of Dorset.
