Watch Rolex Fastnet Race from Hurst Castle

Visit Hurst Castle for a fantastic vantage point to take in the sights and sounds of the Rolex Fastnet Race on Saturday 22nd July, as 400+ yachts of various sizes and classes whiz by!

This biennial offshore yacht race is one of the most famous and challenging yacht races in the world, with around 400 yachts of various sizes and classes taking part. 

It is also one of those rare events where weekend sailors can truly take on the professionals.

The race is a 605 mile sail from Cowes, Isle of Wight, to Cherbourg, via the Fastnet Rock off southern Ireland and back to Plymouth.

It is a sight, and sound not to be missed!

The race starts at 1pm so ensure you allow enough time to get to the castle and find a spot to watch it!
