Ventnor, Seaside resort in Isle of Wight, United Kingdom.

The town spreads across steep slopes leading to the sea, featuring a shingle beach and a zigzag path connecting the seafront to upper sections.

The settlement transformed from a small fishing hamlet into a prominent Victorian health destination after an 1830 publication highlighted its beneficial microclimate.

The Ventnor Fringe festival presents theater performances, music concerts, and comedy shows throughout the town, drawing artists from multiple disciplines.

Southern Vectis buses connect Ventnor to Sandown, Shanklin, Godshill, Newport, and Blackgang, with regular services throughout the day.

The Ventnor Botanic Garden grows plant species that typically survive only in Mediterranean regions due to the location's specific microclimate conditions.
