Accomplished photographer Chad Powell has a 'passion for capturing the night sky', The Islands coastal location and low light pollution levels result in some of England’s darkest skies, making his stunning night sky photography possible. With a wealth of other spectacular scenery shots to browse come and visit his gallery. The Chad Powell Gallery & Shop offers artwork to purchase, in the form of original wall art and many giftable items.

We visited today for a light lunch as had a lively visit a few months ago. We ordered a mushroom & smokey bacon tagliatelle and a light bite lasagne. The service was friendly and the food came out quick. Both meals were really well cooked and the tagliatelle was really flavoursome. Highly recommended the White Lion for its food, atmosphere and service!

The Shipwreck Centre & Maritime Museum was founded in 1978 and had been an ambition of the owner, Martin Woodward, since he first started diving on shipwrecks off the Isle of Wight in the 1960s. Martin, a professional diver by trade who is very passionate about shipwrecks and maritime history, has amassed a huge collection of shipwreck artefacts over the years, but retained it all to put on display to the public. Martin's collection has been on display to the public since his museum first opened in 1978 in Bembridge, however in 2006 the museum expanded and moved to Arreton Barns where it has been thriving. In 2017 the Maritime Archaeology Trust, a charity with over 25 years experience in research, investigations and pioneering techniques for the study of marine cultural heritage took over the management of the museum.

The Museum is in the heart of Arreton Craft Village and well signposted. It houses a vast array of salvaged items all collected by Martin Woodward whose explanatory video is one of the best I have ever seen. It is a very impressive collection of UK shipwreck items including early days diving gear, ships boiler plates, ships bells, navigation lights, ships instruments, lifeboat relics and much more. Each item has a compelling story all explained in Martin's video which breathes life into everything on display. I could have spent all day there but 2-3 hours will give you a good taster and probably hooked into going back again. It is a truly fascinating collection revealing much about the UK's nautical heritage. Will definitely go again

Great opportunity to see glass being made by friendly skilled workers. The end products were very reasonably priced and we didn’t go away empty handed.
