Island Explorer

Island Explorer produces tourist media products about the Isle of Wight. We aim to 'Explore' the Island so that the visitor can enjoy not only the beautiful scenery the Isle of Wight has to offer but also reveal the fascinating history and facts about Queen Victoria's favorite holiday retreat. 
 
Named Vectis by the Romans, the diamond-shaped Isle of Wight has an area of 147 square miles, around 60 miles of coast line, is about 23 miles from east to west and just over 13 miles north to south. It is situated about 5 miles off the south coast from Portsmouth and is separated from the mainland by the Solent which is one ofthe world's busiest shipping lanes.
 
With an Island Explorer DVD, you can visit the Isle of Wight from the comfort of your arm chair and join presenter, Marc Tuckey (the Isle of Wight's ghost walk host) as he takes you on one of our video tours. Our 'Around The Island Tour' production is ideal as an education aid for schools as it features some of the key historical locations such as Carisbrooke Castle.
