    Portsmouth serves as one of England's most important southern ports. Those with an interest in maritime history have come to the right place. Inside the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, you can visit the National Museum of the Royal Navy, step aboard the Nelson's HMS Victory or admire the Tudor Mary Rose.

    Once you've seen the city and the views over the ocean from the observation deck in the sail-shaped Spinnaker Tower, you can explore the cobbled streets of the old town and close off the evening with a beer in one of the cosy maritime-themed pubs.

    • 10 Best Things to Do in Portsmouth

      Portsmouth has been one of the main homes of the British Royal Navy since 1194, and continues to be an important seaport. It wears its maritime associations with pride, from the mighty sail-shaped Spinnaker Tower puncturing the skyline to the many close associations to naval hero Vice-Admiral Lord Nelson. Even the city’s nickname – Pompey – is thought to originate from old ship logs and navigational charts.

      Portsmouth is technically the only island city in Britain, though the watercourse separating it from the mainland is very narrow. Even so, it has a distinct culture and atmosphere, particularly around the ports and docks. However, there’s a lot more to the city than just museums, ships and museum ships – as you're about to discover.
