Transfer from Stansted Airport to Southampton
One of the most distinctive features of Southampton are the port’s “double tides”, a phenomenon that happens only here. The typical tidal range is just about 5 feet (1.5 metres), with 17 hours per day of growing water due to the port’s “double tides”. They enable the biggest containers and cruise ships to gain access to the port for up to 80% of the times. A frequent misunderstanding is that the “double tide” is induced by ‘one tide coming up each side of the Isle of Wight’. Nevertheless, the result is in fact triggered as an effect of tidal flow via the English Channel. High tide at one end of the Dover Channel takes place simultaneously as low tide at Land’s, which means that as the route of the tide along the Channel differs, the position at the middle of it encounters high water for an extended period.
