Cowes is an English seaport town on the Isle of Wight, an island south of Southampton.
Cowes is located on the west bank of the estuary of the River Medina facing the smaller town of East Cowes on the east Bank. Best known as the world's premier yachting centre, Cowes is the Island's main port with a natural harbour. The towns are linked by an old-fashioned chain ferry and have a tradition of fine ship building, dating from the reign of Elizabeth I. Then came the yacht building industry, as sailing became a populr sport, endorsed by the royal family. In 1854, the Royal Yacht Squadron was moved into Cowes Castle, the former Tudor fort, and the name of Cowes has been synonymous with yachting ever since.
Cowes is accessible from the mainland by Ferry, but a great way to explore the area is by RIB. Cowes RIB charter enables fast and exciting travel around the area as well as access to tricky or shallow areas. Skippered RIB charter gives you the freedom to explore, but with the added knowledge and experience of a skipper to guide you. Water sports and activities are also available through RIB hire in Cowes. Another option for those looking for a more unique experience is to charter a Thames sailing barge. A Thames sailing barge charter offers a huge amount of space to entertain guests in an unusually nautical setting.
