Gosport – 7 Quirky Facts
- It’s Historic
The Royal Society for Arts Heritage Index named Gosport as one of the top 10 locations for history in the England. Take that Portsmouth! - What’s In A Name?
It’s believed the name Gosport derives from ‘God’s Port’, local historic accounts say the name was given by the Bishop of Winchester in the 12th century after he survived a storm coming back to the port. - Birth of the Navy
During the middle ages Gosport was a small market town and fishing port. It wasn’t until the birth of the navy that the town really grew and it owes much of its heritage to its naval garrisons. - Smugglers Bay
Gosport has long had tales of smugglers. The perfect place to bring goods ashore away from prying eyes and authorities, the port was a smugglers paradise until local tax collectors got wise. - Pirates
Privateers (essentially state-sponsored pirate ships) operated from Gosport attacking French and Spanish ships in the English Channel. - Queen’s Pier
In 1842 a pier was built for Queen Victoria so she could embark when sailing to her favourite home on the Isle of Wight. - D-Day
Gosport was one of the main ports used to embark troops and equipment for the D-Day landings that changed the tide of WWII.

About
A naval town with a rich history including smugglers tales, daring-do, the town has been visited by kings and queens (Queen Victoria passed through the town on route to her favourite holiday home).
It’s a great place to explore the South Coast or access the charms of the Isle of Wight. Ferries offer quick access to the shops of Portsmouth, but there are plenty of independent shops in the town itself.
The town still has proud naval ties and is home to Royal Navy boats and personnel.
Leisure
There are three marinas with bars, boats, cafés and restaurants, many boasting excellent seafood as you would expect.
The ferry service offers quick access to Portsmouth with cinemas, bowling, theatres, live music venues and Gunwharf Quay (arguably some of the best shopping in Hampshire).
If sailing is your thing then you really will be in your element, but if you prefer to keep your feet on dry land and still enjoy the view there are lovely coastal walks and parks.
