Isle of Wight day trip while the festival's on?

[mistressploppy]

Bad idea or not? We want to go for the day on Saturday 15th. Assuming we can get on a ferry, will it be awful during the festival (13th - 16th)? What about transport on the island - jam-packed or not?

Argh.

TIA

Not sure it's a good idea, although most people going over will have gone Thursday or Friday, so only latecomers on Saturday. I wouldn't take the car as some roads are just completely stuffed...

Yes bad idea - small island limited numbers of ways off and on wait until the following weekend or take lots of car games to play in the jams.

Really, really bad idea. Honestly. Just don't!

Right, thanks guys - you've confirmed my suspicions so were off to hang out in the rain in West Wittering instead
