For surfers and kite surfing enthusiasts one of the Isle of Wight’s best kept secrets, Compton Bay is a short drive away to the south east and offers a 2-mile stretch of contrasting dark and golden sands, with rolling seas, and a stunning backdrop of multi-coloured sandstone cliffs. It’s also a great place to go fossil hunting, and you can book tours on the beach to see the dinosaur footprints in the sandstone ledge at Hanover Point that are exposed at low tide. Outdoor pursuits on the island really are well-catered for, and include horse riding, fishing, cycling, paragliding, and golf.
