Ocean Village
At the bottom of town you will come to Southampton's waterfront, where there is much to see and do. Mayflower Park sits on the water's edge and is a popular place to watch famous cruise liners, such as the QE2 and Oriana, as they set sail from their home port. It also hosts the annual Southampton Boat Show each September. Adjacent to the park, ferries leave for the Isle of Wight, just in case you fancy a day trip. Further along you will find Town Quay, which replaced Southampton's pier. It sits out on the water and is a lovely place to enjoy a drink or evening meal. Walk further along the waterfront (about ten minutes) and you will come to Ocean Village, one of Britain's biggest marina developments. It has many attractions including cinemas, restaurants and bars. Major sailing events start from here, such as the BT Global Challenge yacht race and the Volvo Ocean Race, giving the waterfront a packed and lively atmosphere.
