ViewTent camping near the Fishbourne ferry terminal, Isle of Wight
Of the 14 campsites within 3.1 miles of the Fishbourne ferry terminal, 8 take tents.
You can walk off the Portsmouth car ferry with a tent. Wightlink takes foot passengers on this route, but you must carry your own bags on and off, as staff cannot help. Bikes go free if booked in advance.
From the ramp, Kite Hill Farm is about 25 minutes' walk on quiet lanes. It has showers, a washing-up area and a laundry, and you can choose your own spot on unmarked fields. The Woodland Retreat is closer, about 12 to 15 minutes away, but it was not taking bookings when we checked. Oakdene Orchard is about 40 minutes on foot.
Late arrivals have a backstop: in the October 2026 timetable, one route 9 bus calls at the terminal at 00:50 to meet the 23:59 sailing from Portsmouth. Last Post CS and Wild Oak Farm have no showers, so check before you book. See taking a tent on the ferry.
