Where to Go in Isle of Wight, South East: Top 5 Attractions & Local Favorites

Dr. Manjula P. W. Sahabandu Bembridge Windmill is a charming and peaceful place to visit, especially if you enjoy history and scenic views. Standing on a gentle hill, the windmill offers lovely surroundings and a real sense of the past. The structure is well preserved, and the information inside helps you understand how it once played an important role in local life. The volunteers are friendly and happy to explain how the windmill works, which makes the visit more engaging. Even if you don’t go inside, the area around it is perfect for a short walk and some great photos. It’s a simple but memorable stop on the Isle of Wight and well worth a visit. Its the only remaining windmill on Isle of Wight,

Thomas Atkinson 6 of us booked out an hour in the sauna on a wintry day in Feb and had the whole area to ourselves. We had a superb time! The sauna was a great temp and has a cool one-way screen that overlooks the water. The cold plunge could easily fit us all in at the same time, which makes it infinitely more fun, and there are two showers available for the transitions. We didnt bring our flip flops but if we did, wed probably have gone into the water for a dip too as its a short walk across the stoney beach. Theres a small no frills changing room (one person at a time) and there was a fire pit on the go with chairs around when we were there. Christo, the guy looking after us on the day, is a perfect gent and a calm soul, there for us if we needed but generally just gave us space. Well be adding this to our list of must-dos anytime were back in the area!

Harsha Jayakody Bembridge Beach is a beautiful, peaceful spot with stunning views across the Solent. The combination of golden sands, clear water, and gentle sea breeze makes it a perfect place to relax. At low tide, the rock pools are great to explore, especially for families with children. The view of the lifeboat station and boats passing by adds real charm to the scenery. It’s a truly special place that captures the best of the Isle of Wight’s coastline.

Wuhan Tang Klan The beach at Bembridge is also amazing offering a great walk to the lifeboat launching station with some lovely ornamental landscapes. Fab for dogs too.
