Southern ports
Bristol has been a wealthy port since the Roman era, at the centre of the tobacco, wine and cotton trade, it’s always had an independent streak. To this day, it still has a local currency, the Bristol Pound, and local Bristol time, shown on the clock on the Corn Exchange – 10 minutes behind Greenwich Mean Time. What was once a busy dock where merchants set off for great adventures is now a busy, bustling harbourside with markets, water sports, cafes and world- class attraction. Head south to where naval heritage again plays a significant part in of both Portsmouth and Southampton. Nestled between the South Downs National Park and the New Forest, rolling hills, market towns, ancient woodlands and glorious heathland are ready to be explored on all sides.The Solent is a natural playground for watersports of every persuasion.
