Things to do in Bembridge and Seaview

The Island is full of fun things to do whilst enjoying your stay. Bembridge and the surrounding areas are full of hidden gems, stunning beaches, as well as great places to explore on walks or outdoor activities. Here are a few things you might enjoy whilst staying in Bembridge.

Bembridge Windmill is the only surviving windmill on the Isle of Wight and is now in the hands of the National Trust. Built in the 1700s, the windmill was active through-out the Victorian period, before closing in 1913.

Visitors are sure to love visiting the windmill, and will enjoy taking in some of the sights and scenes which inspired the Romanticist landscape painter J. M. W. Turner. Most of the original machinery is still in place at the windmill, accessed via steep steps which cover four floors, and make for great viewing. Opening days are selected depending on the time of year, but if you have an interest in history and machinery, you’ll enjoy your visit to Bembridge Windmill.

If you’re looking to see some of the sights around Bembridge, there are plenty of walks to choose from - most of which offer stunning scenery of the surrounding area. The Culver Down walk takes approximately two hours to complete - taking you up and across the cliff face - with views across Sandown - before heading down towards Bembridge. Once up on top of Culver Down, you’ll have the chance to enjoy an ice cream, or even refuel at The Culver Haven Inn - ready for the walk back down.

Before heading on the descent down towards Bembridge, take time to visit the Earl of Yarborough Monument - which is hard to miss at 75ft tall - and is situated close to the Culver Haven Inn. The monument is a prominent figure atop the cliff - and was previously used as a guide for ships passing by at sea. (To find out more about the monument, check out our Isle of Wight Landmarks page.)

There are a number of beaches in and around the area - with some hidden gems too. If you enjoy a nice quiet visit to the beach, then it might be worth investigating what Bembridge, St Helens and Seaview have to offer. There are plenty of pathways to walk as well - taking you through magnificent countryside and leading to new adventures.
