We can provide you with £10 return tickets for the Slow Ferry if you let us know ahead of time, otherwise you would need to purchase your own ferry tickets which are double the price.

Our recommended Itinerary is to take the slow ferry that departs at 18:00 so you can arrive at 19:00 at East Cowes.
