Tips

Cowes is a pretty town with a rich Royal heritage. The vibrant streets are filled with places for food and drink, shops, galleries, and museums. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert were very fond of this area and had their rural retreat, Osborne House, built on the edge of town. The maritime gateway to the Isle of Wight, Cowes is well-known for sailing and ship building.

We're in the Solent and it's all about sailing. Cowes Week is one of the oldest regattas, having been around the Isle of Wight in August since 1826. Most recently, 1,000 yachts took part. At the end of this regatta the Fastnet Race starts, well-known, demanding, notorious. The 608 nautical mile regatta rounds Land's End, Fastnet Rock off the southwest coast of Ireland. the Isles of Scilly and ends in Plymouth. The race is notorious for its weather conditions: in 1979, the Fastnet race ended tragically when the regatta field was caught in a hurricane that was predicted very late. At least 75 boats capsized in the Labadie Sandbank area. 15 regatta participants drowned. And then there are the Americas and the Admirals Cup, two very exclusive regattas that originated here and were held in 1851 and 1851 respectively. Started off Cowes for the first time in 1957. The starting gun was fired then and now with the golden cannons.
