Getting There
From Ryde you can take an Island Coaster direct to Alum Bay, three buses run in the morning and take around 2 1/2 hours to make the journey. Alternatively route 9 runs every 10-15 minutes to Newport (taking 30 minutes) where you can change onto bus route 7 which runs every 30 minutes from Newport to Yarmouth and on to Alum Bay (until just after the park closes at which point it terminates two miles back down the road in Totland.) Journey time is around 50 minutes, so around 90 minutes in total. From Newport another alternative is to take the route 7 to Yarmouth and change onto the open-top Needles Breezer which runs every 30 minutes as well but takes a more scenic routeLatitude: 50.667922; Longitude: -1.565623
