Hi, Do you want to be close to the Dockyard, the Train station, or Gun Quay wharf ? Your 2 options are - Wickham Street Car Park (Wickham St, PO1 3EF), and The Harbour Car Park (Havant St, PO1 3EQ). The historic dockyard has its own parking, but a walk down to the entrance (Historic Dockyard Car Park, Admiralty Rd, HM Naval Base, Portsmouth PO1 3GW), and Gun Quay wharf has its own parking (Just Park - Park Rd, Portsmouth PO1 3TZ) and Gunwharf Underground Car Park (79 Gunwharf Rd, Portsmouth PO1 3TZ). My personal preference is for Wickham Street Car Park, you can easily access everything. If you already have an Explorer ticket, I would just turn up.
