Answer 9

Portsmouth Harbour and Protsmouth & Southsea station are both not far from the main shore base and barracks in Portsmouth. However if you are going to the Dockyards which is different from the Naval Base, then you want Porstmouth Harbour Station.

Trains run into Portsmouth by SWT, Southern, Wessex and Virgin Train companies, however due to the ongoing Signal problems (which has been going on for the past 14 months) most trains still terminate at Portsmouth & Southsea or Fratton Station, so you may well have to change trains to get into the Harbour.

Answer 10

Portsmouth and Southsea Central is close to the active bases and Whale Island. A bit less than a mile to walk.

Portsmouth harbour is more obvious but is not actually much closer to the active bases. It is musch closer to the closed areas that form the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard.

Have a look at Google Maps or an A-Z and you'll see what I mean.
