Cowes week - Elan 37's
Venue: Cowes
Duration: 7 days
Price: £POA
About the event
Cowes Week offers some of the most exciting racing conditions on the compact Solent waters, which are as exhilarating to watch as it is to compete in. The regatta extends over a magnificent 8 days and is not for the faint hearted! Serious racing is of course also accompanied by some serious socialising. Strong tides, erratic weather and 900 competitors, certainly make this a challenging event!
About the Island
Easy to get to, the Isle of Wight has something for everyone and is one of the most beautiful parts of Britain. Just 23 miles by 13, the Island boasts award winning beaches, unspoilt and spectacular scenery and a rich historical heritage. More than half the Island is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with over 500 miles of award-winning public foot paths and bridleways and almost 30 miles of the seashore has been designated as Heritage Coast. It is also one of the best known sailing venues in the world as separating the Isle of Wight and mainland England is the Solent - an area of varied coastline and fierce tidal streams - which has been a training ground for world-beating sailors.
Other activities:
The infamous Cowes beer tent comes alive straight after racing as the crews come ashore to relax and swap stories over a few post race drinks. The fun is non stop and the buzz is really exhilarating. The village of Cowes is a hive of activity with excellent restaurants and pubs which are all full of life and great food. There's plenty of great 'yachtie' shops as well for anyone who fancies a bit of shopping.
