Isle of Wight ferry - good prices?

Hey all,

We're looking to book a return trip to the Isle of Wight, but can't get anything less than £150. Can any experts help us?

Departure - 9 Jun 11 (arriving at latest 2pm)
Return - anytime 13 Jun 11

1 x car and 2 x adults.

Thanks to all that help!

    There's nothing leaving the island now until half nine on Monday night but you'll pay for it - £81 one way from East Cowes-Southampton. Red Funnel only have 4.15am from Southampton left if you want to arrive before 2pm. http://www.redfunnel.co.uk/

    Slightly cheaper if you really can travel anytime Monday, is with Wightlink, Portsmouth - Fishbourne, leaving Thurs 9th @ 11am and returning Monday @ midnight, £110.60 for car x 2 adults. http://www.wightlink.co.uk/

    Failing that, there's always the option of leaving the car and bringing your gear over via passenger ferry or hovercraft, much cheaper and loads of buses will be laid on to take you to the festival site, assuming that's why you're coming here?

    Enjoy the festival - note for next year, book ferry early!!
