ABOUT THE CITY
Portsmouth is a dynamic and vibrant waterfront city packed with great reasons to visit.
Our city is situated on the south coast of England, it is the UK's only island city. Portsmouth has a proud naval and maritime heritage, as well as having word-class visitor attractions, museums and galleries, unique shopping destinations, great food and drink, and miles of beautiful waterfront.
It's a popular location for sports, picnics and dog walks. Recently, the Common has also hosted a number of high-profile events, including the America's Cup World Series and Victorious music festival. Also situated on the Common is Southsea Castle, one of King Henry VIII's most famous fortifications. It's from the castle's vantage point that Henry is said to have watched the sinking of his flagship vessel, the Mary Rose.
