The Historic Dockyard, the Spinnaker Tower, Gunwharf Quays and the old harbour-mouth streets

This is Portsmouth's waterfront. The Historic Dockyard, with HMS Victory, the Mary Rose and HMS Warrior, the Spinnaker Tower and the shops and restaurants of Gunwharf Quays are all a few minutes' walk from Portsmouth Harbour station.

South of Gunwharf, Old Portsmouth has the cathedral, the Round and Square Towers, the Hotwalls Studios and the pubs of Bath Square at the harbour mouth. The Gosport Ferry crosses to the submarine museum, and the Guildhall and city centre lie inland to the east.

Consigli da insider

Prima di partire

1

One ticket for the ships

The Historic Dockyard sells one ticket that includes HMS Victory, the Mary Rose and HMS Warrior. Its annual ticket lets you return as often as you like for a year.

2

Walk between the sights

Visit Portsmouth puts Gunwharf Quays about 250 metres from the Dockyard, the cathedral about 500 metres further, and the Hotwalls Studios about 300 metres beyond that.

3

Spinnaker Tower tickets

The tower says there is no need to book: buy tickets on arrival. Its Sky Bar, Clouds Café and afternoon tea were closed when we checked.

4

Cross to Gosport

The Gosport Ferry runs every 15 minutes and takes 4 minutes, according to the operator. The submarine museum is on Jetty Road on the Gosport side.
