From the buds of early spring, to the cool nights of winter, the Isle of Wight has plenty to offer whenever you visit. You can explore the Island and its many attractions during the busy summer periods, or wait till the Island’s trees change colour from green to brown and discover a new side to the Isle of Wight during the autumn and winter.
Many attractions are open all year round, and with plenty of great events taking place from January to December too – meaning you won’t be short of things to do. Most restaurants, bars and takeaways are also open throughout the year making it so easy to find a great place to eat during your stay.
