Visiting Rampion
Rampion receives many enquiries from people interested in visiting the wind farm.
We do not organise public boat trips ourselves as we are focussed on the operation and maintenance of the wind farm.
However, a number of local charter boat operators are offering the opportunity to get a more close up view of the project and they are aware of the safety requirements. For a full list please visit the charter boat operators page.
For a first hand experience of a charter boat visit to the wind farm, read Christian Donlan’s article published in the New Statesman here, or this article in The Times.
You can also visit our Visitor Centre which is located on Brighton’s seafront. Here you can discover how electricity is generated, how the wind farm was constructed and learn about the relationship between electricity and climate change.
We recommend you try out the very popular Virtual Reality, which takes you on a virtual journey out to the Wind Farm, where you can ‘climb’ up a wind turbine and see the view from the top!
