The Isle of Wight is perceived as being remote in fact we're very well connected. Access to Europe, London, the rest of the South East and UK is via air, road, rail and sea links.

The cross-Solent ferry market is the biggest in the UK. During 2000, 8.6 million passengers, 1.5 million cars and 250,000 commercial vehicles crossed the Solent. Links from five travel interchanges on the northern coast provide three vehicle routes and three dedicated passenger routes into Southampton, Portsmouth and the New Forest. Crossing the Solent these days is as simple and, for Island companies costs roughly the same as taking a taxi to the local railway station.

For travel to Europe or further a-field, Southampton International Airport is the business airport on the Island's doorstep. In 1999 Southampton was the fastest growing airport in percentage terms in the UK. The airport is a short journey away and is also serviced by a fast rail link service to London.
