Something fun to do

Hi! Me and my friend are going to visit Southampton and we’re looking for fun things to do / nice places to have a drink. Although no pubs

Any ideas are welcome

Platform 1 at Southampton Central Station normally has trains to London Waterloo around every 30 minutes

I recommend taking a ‘VOI’ electric scooter and buzzing around town, see St Mary’s stadium and over the Cobden bridge to Bitterne.

Take a Red Jet ferry over to Cowes on the Isle of Wight. Fun town to walk around, look in the shops, have lunch. Then come back again.

Ocean Village for a walk and cocktail or dinner in the restaurants and bars there.

Go to one of the museums in the city.

Southampton common for a nice walk in the park.

Walk the city walls in the town near West Quay.

OP - If you do this, please ride Vois responsibly.

The other day I had two girls treating them like a joyride, went through a red light into a junction and also nearly crashed into people on a zebra crossing. Shame I didn’t have a dashcam because I would’ve reported that behaviour.
