A new landmark resembling a billowing sail towers over Portsmouth Harbour on the South Coast, the centre of England`s naval power since Tudor times. At 170 metres, Spinnaker Tower is the tallest publicly accessible structure in the UK, offering superb views over the harbour and up to 23 miles in three directions. It is expected to open in October.



There are three glass encapsulated viewing decks. Deck one has a glazed floor where visitors can `walk on air`; deck two has two self-contained multimedia stations showing the history of the harbour; and three, the Crow`s Nest, is open to the elements. A panoramic glass lift takes visitors up and down the outside of the tower, complemented by a high-speed internal lift. The Tower Cafe Bar serves coffee, classic sandwiches by day and wine and bottled beer at night. The attraction is open daily.
