What Wikivoyage says about moving around
  • Get inFrom a mainland location, the best approach is to use the Wightlink car and passenger ferry which runs every half-hour direct to Yarmouth.
  • Get inThis ferry operates from Lymington (on the mainland) and has good rail and road connections (as described in the Lymington article).
  • Get inTaking a car on the ferry can be quite expensive; for short visits it may be better to park in the car park at Lymington Pier and board the ferry as a foot passenger.
