My wife and I were lucky enough to get an annual pass to the Portsmouth dock yard museum and decided to visit the submarine museum. We were given a tour of HMS Alliance, which we both thoroughly enjoyed and it was my first time inside a submarine, which I found fascinating, informative and I felt privileged to see how submariners live at sea to guard our nation. We had a nice coffee from the dockside cafe and were directed to a warm room to have it, after which we went into the display to see the well restored submarine Holland 1 and then into the larger museum to view many other exhibits and including the X 24, a must see. An extremely well laid out and fascinating insight, into our submarine history, thanks to all who made our day such an enjoyable one.

In Gosport town centre you’ll find The Discovery Centre, which is open till 7pm on weekday evenings. There is a surprising range of things to see at the Centre, including art exhibitions, events, and special activities for children and families. The Discovery Centre museum tells the history of Gosport and is well worth a visit, whilst those interested in fossils will enjoy the Geology Gallery. Why not also visit the family friendly exhibition on the mezzanine floor of Gosport Discovery Centre. Located just off the Town Centre High Street, exhibitions use pictures, objects and interactives to tell the stories of Gosport’s people.
The library rejoices in the name of Discovery Centre, but it's a library really. There is a good cafe and toilets, plenty of tables and chairs, free wifi (which is why I went there in the first place) and the staff are friendly and helpful. There was a good display of the plans the council have to upgrade the centre and waterfront area of Gosport, and goodness knows they could do more with it.

Founded 1987 as a charity, the Hovercraft Museum Trust has become the world's greatest collection of Hovercraft. Come visit our large collection of hovercraft large, and small. From the world's biggest commercial hovercraft, the SRN4, that ran a car ferry service across the channel to France, to craft used to film James Bond Die Another Day.
A very interesting museum, just off the sea front at lee on the Solent. antibacterial hand gel everywhere. Staff helpful. We spent a few hours there. And we were able to walk round a hovercraft that went over the channel.

Paint Your Own Pottery Studio
Just spent a fabulous evening with friends painting pottery. An amazing choice of items to choose from, ranging from very small trinkets to large cookie pots, loads of ideas and best of all ...stencils for those like me , who love to paint but are no good at free hand. Staff were very helpful and friendly, you even get a free coffee and biscuits. We were there well over 2 hours, never felt rushed.. suitable for all ages and abilities .. thoroughly recommend a lovely way to spend time with friends and be creative with something to take home to keep after.

Fallen Acorn Brewing Co. is the newest real ale and craft beer brewery in Hampshire. The brewery began life as Oakleaf Brewery who produced award-winning ales such as Hole Hearted, in 2016 the Brewery was re-born as Fallen Acorn.
I went with a group and we had a great friendly welcome, the beer was in top condition and the brewer Ed was gracious with his time and hospitality. Fully recommended. Please note this is a working brewery so public entry times are limited and tours can be arranged at a charge.

Took the 12 o’clock tour on 31st of October 2019, and it was excellent. Full marks to the tour guide who has a wealth of knowledge at his fingertips, and I would absolutely recommend a knowledgeable guide if you don’t know much about the various weapons on display. Excellent to have the context, and learn about the way weapons and the philosophy behind their designs have changed over the years. He was happy to answer questions, and was comprehensively able to answer quite specific questions about the weapons. Most impressive!
