Priory Bay

Priory Bay sits on the northeast coast of the Isle of Wight, a small, privately owned bay where you anchor off and take in views toward Selsey Bill across the Solent. It's a quietly beautiful spot, just a short dinghy ride from a sandy beach that feels surprisingly tucked away given how accessible it is. The village of Nettlestone is less than a mile inland if you fancy stretching your legs.
