Steamship Shieldhall cruise to the Isle of Wight and the Medina River

Join us on an exciting cruise when Shieldhall will venture into the Medina River on the Isle of Wight! On our way down Southampton Water we will pass the cruise ships Celebrity Apex, Iona, MSC Virtuosa, Oceania Insignia and Seven Seas Grandeur at close quarters. Then, on reaching the Solent we will head east, viewing Norris Castle and Osborne House from the water. We will then return and enter the lower reaches of the Medina River, passing old warehouses and wharves, where in the past flying boats, hovercraft and steam ships were developed and built. We will welcome on board guests from the Cowes Hammerhead Crane Trust, who will give an entertaining insight into the Medina views! This trip had rare reviews when it has been staged in 2024 and 2025!
