Portsmouth in Brief

Portsmouth’s one of the liveliest cities on the south coast of England. It might sell itself on ferries and naval history, but what most people who love the city buy is its brilliant attitude. From the kiss-me-quick seaside tradition of Southsea with its iconic pier, ice-cream cones and shingle beach to the modern city centre or the charm of Old Portsmouth, pick a place, give it a minute and something’s happening.
