Extra sailings

Extra overnight sailings between Portsmouth and Ryde

We’re laying on extra sailings between Portsmouth Harbour and Ryde Pier Head between Friday, 28 and Monday, 31 August 2026.

The additional late night sailings mean more flexibility to enjoy an evening out on either side of the Solent, whether that’s catching up with friends, treating the family to dinner or heading to Victorious Festival.

These extra crossings will be on a different ferry to usual and will take slightly longer to cross the Solent – around 30 minutes. See the full list of extra crossings below.
