The zoo was built within the ruins of a Victorian Fort built to guard Sandown's coast, which means we face one of the Isle of Wight's nicest beaches. Once upon a time the zoo owners used to walk tiger cubs on the beach, and we're still famous locally for it. Nowadays we focus on looking after older tigers and giving them a happy retirement. www.isleofwightzoo.com Dinosaur Isle - Sandown Dinosaur Isle is Britain's first purpose built dinosaur museum and visitor attraction; based in Sandown on the Isle of Wight. The Island's diverse geology contains a wealth of fossils that tell us much about the past and gives clues to the effects of possible future environmental changes. Starting around 126 million years ago the rocks record the best exposures of dinosaur material in Europe. Progressively younger rocks record a variety of animals that were living on the land, in the rivers, and those that flew above lakes and lived in the seas. Plants are also well recorded on the Island. These remains show that for much of the time we were once a lot warmer and further from the sea. The youngest fossils are those from the more recent cold climates of the Ice-Ages. This story is displayed in the museum's galleries for you to learn and enjoy. We are sited next to some of the oldest rocks on the Island - why not come and join us on one of our advertized guided fossil walks. http://www.dinosaurisle.com/newhomepage.aspx Sandown Pier A whole days fun in one!

During that time it has been a Saxon fortress and a castle of the Norman conquest, much remodelled during the Middle Ages and under Elizabeth I. Most famously, Charles I was held prisoner here during the Civil War, shortly before his execution. Since then it has remained a symbolic centre for the island, not least as the residence of its governor. https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/carisbrooke-castle/ The Needles Visit The Needles Landmark Attraction at the South, Western tip of the Isle of Wight, explore the wonderful natural coastline and discover the world famous Needles Rocks and Trinity Lighthouse from Alum Bay, the Island’s most iconic location. http://www.theneedles.co.uk/ Osborne House Osborne House is a former royal residence in East Cowes, Isle of Wight, United Kingdom.
