Sailing area
UK3 covers the Solent, the strait between Southampton on the mainland and the Isle of Wight. The area is known as one of the best sailing areas in England, but is also characterized by strong tidal currents that make navigation exciting.
Summer brings a lot of boat traffic, especially as Southampton is one of the largest ports in the UK and is visited by many cruise ships. The sailing community is very active and every two years the famous Fastnet Race regatta starts from Cowes on the Isle of Wight.
The Isle of Wight is renowned for its distinctive limestone cliffs that stretch across much of the island. The iconic rock formations of The Needles on the western side of the island are one of the area’s most famous landmarks.
