Inspiring Isle of Wight Adventures Since 1861
For 163 years, Red Funnel has been connecting passengers between the Isle of Wight and Southampton. And while a lot has changed – our paddle steamers have been replaced with state-of-the-art vessels, our onboard facilities are a whole lot better than they were in 1861 – you’ll be greeted with the same warm welcome, standout customer service, and an adventurous spirit when you arrive on board.
