The very word "Blackgang" has a legendary ring about it, summoning up visions of smugglers, shipwrecks and wild storm lashed shores
In 1800 Blackgang Chine was a steep gaunt ravine situated some 500 feet above the sea overlooking Chale Bay, on the S. W. Tip of the Isle of Wight. Stretching some three quarters of a mile down to the shore, it was a wild and desolate place - frequented by none other than local fishermen, during the mackerel season. There were also rumours of a thriving smuggling trade!
Children's imagination runs wild as they enjoy the many themed areas around the park. Whether it be smugglers on the high seas, goblins and trolls inside Rumpus Mansion, or the wild west of Frontierland, Blackgang provides a fertile base for activity play.
St. Catherine's Quay exhibition & the Sawmill illustrate the life and times of the Island coastal life in times gone by, as well as tells the story about the local continuing landslips.
