Wightlink is your award-winning easy-to-use ferry service with excellent customer service connecting the Isle of Wight with Southern England.

You can choose between three amazing routes:

  • Portsmouth – Fishbourne car ferries
  • Lymington – Yarmouth car ferries
  • Portsmouth Harbour – Ryde Pier Head FastCat passenger catamarans

We are one of the UK’s largest domestic ferry operators, carrying over 4.5 million passengers on more than 45,000 crossings every year. We have invested £45million since 2016 in a new environmentally friendly hybrid energy flagship for the Portsmouth-Fishbourne route.

Our sailings are punctual, reliable and speedy. It takes just 22 minutes by FastCat and from 40 minutes by car ferry to cross the Solent with Wightlink.

Every year, we provide over £800,000 of discounted travel to charities, good causes, Island events, sporting teams and arts groups. Our Wight Taste outlets showcase the best in Island-sourced food and drink. And we ship everything from locomotives for the Isle of Wight Steam Railway to exotic creatures for the Island’s animal parks.

Among our awards for customer service, we have been awarded ‘Best Family Ferry Operator’ by Family Traveller magazine, TripAdvisor’s Certificate of Excellence and a number of awards at Loo of the Year 2017.

Wightlink is Your Link to and from the beautiful Isle of Wight.
