Lymington Ferry Port Information

About The Port

Lymington ferry port is located on the south coast of England. It is a small but busy harbour that has connections to Yarmouth on the Isle of Wight, with up to 17 crossings per day. It has just one ferry terminal.

The port dates all the way back to the 6th century when the Saxons founded a settlement named “limen tun”. Despite its relatively small size, the port at Lymington has seen its fair share of history and activity that leads right up to the modern day. It was part of an important wine and cloth route, it once housed merchant and war ships as well as being burnt down twice during the Hundred Years War with France.

Today, there is much less destruction and much more relaxation for ferry passengers travelling to the Isle of Wight. Wightlink Ferries is the operator from this port.
