Sightseeing
The Military road and Compton Bay is one of my favourite drives and walks!
It's just so beautiful and open and gives you a real sense of being somewhere special.
As a destination it's perfect for all sorts of occasions: family beach trip, surfing, swimming, walking, scenic drive, romance, sunset, picnic, dog walks

While the High Street is a little run down, if you head down to the seafront, find a parking space, and spend a few hours walking, eating and breathing in the fresh air.
I'd recommend:
- the Jurassic Coastal walk along to Steephill Cove
- The Smoking Lobster - booking advisable
- The Met
- Ventnor Botanical Gardens
