About Southampton

Southampton is a port city on the southeastern coast of England. It was developed in ancient Roman times and is still an important trading city today. The heavy bombing during World War II destroyed most of the historic architecture and features of the city. Today, many of the buildings in Southampton today are modern style.

While Britain is not famous for having great weather, Southampton does have some of the best weather of all the United Kingdom. This is especially true in the summer. June, July, and August will have the highest temperatures and less rainfall than the spring or autumn. This is the best time of year to visit Southampton, especially if you’re hoping to rent a boat. The winter can be very cold and it’s not uncommon for there to be snow on the ground.

To get to Southampton, you can fly directly to the Southampton airport, or fly to one of the larger international airports in London and reach Southampton by train or bus. From London, it takes about 2 hours to reach Southampton.
