Wightlink Ferries Pets Information

Dogs travel free on both Wightlink’s car ferries and its FastCat passenger catamarans so money saving day trip tickets, available year round, can provide the gateway to an energetic day’s dog walking on the Isle of Wight.

No pet passports needed for canine breaks to the Isle of Wight no form filling, no visits to the vet – it’s plain sailing across the Solent for dogs on holiday!

More than 500 miles of marked footpaths and a host of sandy beaches make the Isle of Wight a great place for dogs to visit - with their owners! Footpaths can be found along the towering chalk cliffs of the south coast, in its wildlife-rich wetlands and woodlands, hidden away in the lush green countryside and along the river valleys that dissect an island just 23 miles wide and 13 miles deep, boasting some of the UK’s most varied landscape. So don't even think about leaving Fido at home - he will enjoy the walking holiday as much as you do.
