The Needles Park

The Isle of Wight's premier visitor attraction, The Needles Park is situated at Alum Bay overlooking the Island's most famous landmark, The Needles Rocks and Lighthouse. Every year, nearly half a million people visit to view these jagged chalk stacks and lighthouse, the unique multi coloured sand cliffs and enjoy the Park's facilities, including the spectacular chairlift.

The Needles and Alum Bay first became popular with tourists over 200 years ago, and in Victorian times the area attracted large numbers of visitors who travelled from the mainland by paddle steamer.

Today, this scenic place is more popular than ever with the natural beauty of the heritage coastline and an exciting range of craft and educational attractions, proving irresistible draws to the visiting public.

And, when you're feeling peckish you'll find a wide choice of food to suit all tastes from big value snacks to hearty meals and a licensed bar where you can enjoy a relaxing drink.
