Seaview is a small Edwardian resort located on the north-eastern corner of the Isle of Wight, overlooking the Solent. The village is only a 15-minute drive from the town of Ryde and minutes from the village of Nettlestone.
On the seafront lies the The Old Fort pub, a drinking spot popular with both residents and visitors. The Salterns Cottages used to house salt pan workers. One street is named Rope Walk, because long sections of rope for rigging ships were laid out there.
The well-known Priory Bay is approximately a ten minute walk from the village. This stretch of beach can only be reached at low tide. It is filled with white sand and offers excellent swimming conditions.
Seaview is home to the Seaview Wildlife Encounter, No Man's Land Fort, formerly part of the coast defences and now a luxury residence, is visible in the Solent one mile from Seaview. The village is also home to the Sea View Yacht Club, founded in 1893. In summer, the Seaview Regatta is organised and run by the Seaview Regatta Company, during which locals and tourists can take part in many traditional activities, such as the greasy pole!
