The ferries for [[France]] depart from [[Portsmouth]] and [[Poole]].
==Hitching Out of City Centre==
===North or East via [[M27 (GB)|M27]]===
* Option 1
Alternatively, you could try walking along The Avenue/Bassett Avenue (A33) - although it has bus lanes in places, it's definitely worth giving it a try (especially in Southampton Common area, where there is one very wide lane each way)
===South towards Cowes, [[Isle of Wight]]===

==Hitching Out from the Outskirts==
===North towards Eastleigh, [[Winchester]], ([[West Midlands (England)|The West Midlands]], [[A34 (GB)|A34]]), [[London]]===
If you are in the north of the city, try hitching from near Chilworth roundabout, where the [[M3 (GB)|M3]] starts.
===West towards [[Ringwood]], [[Bournemouth]], [[Poole]]===
Use M271 (going into M27 West and then A31), or A35 West via Totton.
The only train that stops at that station is Romsey-Totton train which operates every 30 minutes and calls at: Romsey, Chandler's Ford, Eastleigh, Southampton Airport Parkway, Swaythling, St Denys, Southampton Central, Millbrook, Redbridge, Totton.
===East towards [[Fareham]], [[Portsmouth]], [[Brighton]]===
Use M27 East from junction 5 (Southampton Airport) - see below for directions
==Public transport==
[http://www.uni-link.info Uni-link] operates 2 useful services for hitch-hikers: U1 (City Centre-Airport) will take you close (and even past) junction 5 on M27, and U2 will take you to Chilworth roundabout, where the [[M3 (GB)|M3]] motorway starts. The current single fare is £1.50 (to anywhere), or £2.50 for an all-day (uni-link only!) one-day bus pass. If you visit Southampton more than once, it may be helpful to buy a 12-journey ticket for £10 on a smart card (£1 will be required towards the deposit)
