Home to the Hythe ferry for day trips to Southampton, the Victorian pier is a prominent feature of the New Forest waterfront. The marina is filled with watercraft of all shapes and sizes and has a great history of maiden voyages, from the Titanic to the QE2 and modern superliners, with the hovercraft being born here. It's a maritime marvel town that also lays claim to famous residents such as Lawrence of Arabia. One last claim to fame - the oldest working pier train in the world is here.
