}}Dinosaur Isle is a purpose-built dinosaur museum located in Sandown on the Isle of Wight in southern England.[1]

The museum was designed by Isle of Wight architects Rainey Petrie Johns in the shape of a giant pterosaur.[2] It claims to be the first custom-built dinosaur museum in Europe. The £2.7 million cost of the museum was provided by Isle of Wight Council and the National Lottery Millennium Commission.[3] Dinosaur Isle opened to visitors on 20 August 2001.

The museum features numerous replica fossils and life-sized models of Iguanodon, Polacanthus, Eotyrannus and Neovenator - the last is animatronic.[2] The Neovenator was discovered and named by the museum's curator Steve Hutt. Guests are given the opportunity to speak to experts and watch them at work.
