SHANKLIN CHINE

First opening to the public in 1817, Shanklin Chine has long been at the forefront of countless childhood holiday memories. When visiting you’ll be amazed by the main waterfall, tumbling down the cliff edge from 45 feet and the second, which is equally as stunning, falling from 29 feet.

The Chine is home to an abundance of wild plant species as well as visiting wildlife such as woodpeckers, herons, dragonflies and the Island’s famous red squirrels.

Wander the pathways and stop off for refreshments at the Tea Room (which you can now enter for FREE without paying for admission) and then pick up a souvenir from the Antiques Centre. Come back at night with a 7 day free return ticket to experience the Chine illuminations after dark.

NEW for 2023 at home in the undergrowth of the Chine there are some new visitors who have set uphome. Follow the trail and winding walkways to spot baby dinos hatching out their eggs as well as few larger friends.

Once you’ve explored the Chine, refuel at the Fisherman’s Cottage Inn. Located at the bottom of the Chine, this ‘pub on the beach’ serves delicious home- cooked food alongside a great selection of drinks to enjoy with an incredible view, like no other on the Island.

Shanklin Chine is open daily from 23rd March - 31st October 2023, 10am - 10pm.
