    Tips

    April 30, 2019

    Access to the viewpoint is free of charge 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. In high season, there's an open-top bus from Yarmouth, Freshwater Bay and the Needles Park to the headland. Access to the Old Battery (National Trust) is not free and not 24/365.

      Keep to the footpaths as there are sheer cliffs and to stop erosion of the headland.

        Great view of the Needles. Opportunity to see the Rocket testing site used between 1956 and 1971
