Gosport Town serves as the main commercial and civic hub of the borough. The area is centred around the High Street, with a mix of independent shops and national retailers. The pedestrianised section provides the primary shopping focus, leading towards the bus station and ferry terminal for connections to Portsmouth.

The area's history is tied to maritime defence, visible in the remains of fortifications like Gosport Lines. The Town Hall and former Police Station are prominent local buildings.
