On a recent family visit to the Isle of Wight we decided to visit the famous Needles and ride the Chairlift down to the beach.

As you will see the views are lovely,but maybe not for those who don't like heights lol.

Prices for the Chairlift are -
Adults £4 each way
Children £3 each way

Parking which is charged for the whole day is £6 per car and slightly more for campers and such like,but can't remember the exact price.

For anyone looking to visit the Isle of White then as s a rough guide,it cost us £100 return for an Mercedes A class with 5 passengers.
Prices will vary for size of vehicle and time of day that you travel.

    What a view. Not sure I could do it but I certainly want to. Thanks for sharing it.
  • Absolutely beautiful Brotein Shake! Yes, videos like this are always welcome. Wholesome content that shows the beauty of the land, nature, theme parks, etc. Always appreciated. It can't always be about t.v. Sometimes, people seeing stuff outside of their living rooms may inspire them. Hope you have been able to return to the gym. You are looking jacked. May God Bless you and your family 👪🙏

    I remember doing that thirty years ago with parents..you could buy various glass ornaments with varied colour sand in it as the rock has different coloured rock in it….but quite the drop going

    Born and bred on Island use to go to Alum Bay as a teenager in the early 70s befor the chairlift, use to race each other up the steps then , struggle to walk up stairs to bed now days😄😄

    Legend. Top video (no pun intended lol) 👍🏼
  • @clembu2275
    Thanks for the video. I went on this as a kid in the 80s and now I’m taking my wife and kid this summer to do the same! Though I already know my wife won’t ride it as she hates heights and my daughter will be 4 (on the day we do it) and she’s a fidget so I’m not sure about taking her on. Shame about the boat queue but there seems a lot to do there now.

    I went on that back in the early 80s when I was a kid. Dad walked down as he's scared of heights 😂😂
  • i live in west cowes should have come to see you keep the vids comming m8
  • @staple6451
    You know what’s funny, I heard you say that apparently they need to move it soon, but I went on there just last month and it was still in the same position 😂
  • @steven2809
    Nice! I remember doing this Alum Bay chairlift 28 years ago….must have been before the land slip because I remember when you got to the edge of the cliff all you could see was the sea! It was very unnerving….and needless to say I walked back up…..😄 Lovely weather….

    I visited today believe it or not! 🥶 About 5°c with a little wind and chuffing freezing overall. The pylon before the drop is covered in scaffolding, the cliff beyond is seriously eroded and for my money unless its foundations are at least 20 metres deep they're going to need to spend hundreds of thousands before they can let anyone near it again. I've been on plenty of ski lifts and this thing looked way, way sketchier than anything I've seen in the Alps, to the point I was amazed it was still apparently in use until recently.

    Weather looks amazing! I drove up to Belfast myself, checked out the titanic museum and then took a trip up to the Giants Causeway
