Gosport Anchorage
Gosport Anchorage sits in the sheltered waters of Portsmouth Harbour, putting you right in the thick of one of Britain's most historically rich naval settings, with views across to the Historic Dockyard and HMS Victory. The atmosphere here is genuinely hard to beat — you're anchored in working harbour waters with ferries, naval vessels, and classic yachts all moving around you. From here you can easily dinghy ashore to explore Gosport town, catch the Gosport Ferry across to Portsmouth, or make your way to the Explosion! Museum of Naval Firepower nearby.
