We’re so confident in the Isle of Wight’s title as the “sunniest place in the UK”, we’re backing it up by offering our Sunshine Guarantee again this summer. 

According to the Met Office, the Isle of Wight boasts on average 1976 hours of sunlight each year, compared with other popular coastal destinations like Weymouth at 1904 hours and Bournemouth 1779 hours per year – putting the Island top of the podium in the sunshine stakes.

So, we’re offering visitors an Isle of Wight Sunshine Guarantee – peace of mind that you’ll be enjoying your summer staycation basking in the sun on one of the Island’s 25 idyllic beaches.

And if it rains for a whole day during your visit? (which is unlikely!) We’ll give you 50% off ferry travel for a return trip later in the year.

Visit the Island for 3+ nights between 1st July and 30th September and experience a full day of rain any point during your holiday, and you’ll qualify for this rainy-day discount. T&Cs apply*

To claim, simply send an email to [email protected] with the following info:

📅The date of the day it rained
📷 A photo or video of the rain
⛴️ Your Red Funnel booking reference number

All rainy day claims will be assessed internally by our expert “Sunshine Wardens” using Met Office Rainfall Radar Data. So, no cheating, or rain dances!
