Ferry from Portsmouth

    The Gosport ferry runs continuously from 5:30am to midnight, 7 days a week from a landing stage adjacent to Portsmouth Harbour Rail Station.

    The trip across the bustling Portsmouth Harbour takes only three minutes, and is an excellent opportunity to observe the bustling harbour.

    For those late nights out over in the Portsmouth clubs, after the regular service stops, there is a late night boat, however expect to pay a lot more for this service.
