Sandown Bay

Sandown is the sister resort to Shanklin. It sits in the centre of Sandown bay with Shanklin to the south and Yaverland and Culver cliff to the north. It offers sandy beaches, which are gently sloping and are ideal for safe bathing. There will always be plenty of room on the beach as the miles of sand run right the way around The Bay.

Sandown is one of the few towns, which has retained its pier. There are amusements, fairground rides and facilities for those holiday makers who are anglers. The family can be entertained for many hours, or just sit and look at the views of The Bay and both Bembridge and St. Boniface Downs.

Sandown is a family resort. There are nightclubs, pubs, restaurants and cafes. The kids will have hours of fun on Browns Pitch and Putt whilst close by is the Zoo with tiger sanctuary. Sandown also has an 18-hole golf course, small airport where you can take a pleasure flight and even a Dinosaur Museum where you can wonder at the Prehistoric Visitors that the Island used to cater for.
