Nothing wrong with the ferry itself and good views across Southampton Water. However, facilities at ticket office very basic and doesn't open earlier enough to be able to buy tickets and get to work in the mornings (You can buy tickets from a machine but you need a pocket full of change as it only accepts coins). more

We were in Southampton for a few days to catch a cruise. We took the ferry to Hythe. Charming pubs, little shops, and very friendly people. Not a tourist destination so you may feel like a local very soon. Going back to visit in April 2008. more

Great fun to ride on the little electric train to the end of the pier and then catch the ferry ending up in the heart of Southampton's historic waterfront. If you're lucky (like we were) you'll the Queen Mary 2 will be in town, and the ferry goes right past her berths. Fantastic photo opportunities, if that sort of thing... more
