ITS FESTIVAL
FEVER...
Every year the Bournemouth
Air Festival dazzles the town
with incredible displays,
music concerts and pop up
restaurants on the beaches.
And it's not the only
festival you can enjoy here.
We love Arts by the Sea in
autumn - a spirited mix of
dance, film, music, literature,
theatre and comedy - and
Bestival is moving to nearby
Lulworth Castle this year, too.

THERE'S SO
MUCH ON THE
D O O R S T E P...
Locals will tell you Poole
Harbour is the second largest
natural harbour in the world.
Others may dispute that,
but it will certainly appear
so if you go around it rather
than use the chain ferry from
Sandbanks to Studland. Get
off on the other side and
you're in Enid Blyton country.
Alternatively, travel east
from Bournemouth for the
glorious New Forest.

Like to be
beside the
seaside?

IT'S CHILD
F R I E N D LY...
My toddler would happily
spend every day on the
beach (we even had
his birthday party on it
- after all there's nothing
like a bit of sea air to tire out
a bunch of one-year-olds).
But there are so many
other things to do with kids,
too: parks and leisure centres
aplenty, farms, theme parks,
the Oceanarium with its
sharks, sea turtles, stingrays,
dwarf crocodiles, jellyfish,
clownfish and a very cute
otter family.

THE LOCAL
CUISINE IS
SOMETHING TO
C E L E B RAT E ...
Since having a child, my love
for gin, ice cream and coffee
has grown exponentially, and
this is where Dorset really
does delight. Conker Gin is
a delicious local tipple, the
range of Purbeck ice creams
do battle with the classic
seaside staple of the '99
and there are a
number of
local coffee
roasters,
including
the fabulous
Beanpress
Coffee Co. which
brings an ethically
sourced taste of
Central and South
America, Africa and Asia
to the south coast.

AT T RAC T S
WILDLIFE...
Bournemouth and the
surrounding area is awash
with wildlife. There are wild
ponies in the New Forest,
red squirrels on Brownsea
Island - in nearby Poole
Harbour - seals and dolphins
to be spotted in the water
and stunning displays of
starling murmurations.
I have to admit, the sound
of seagulls is a happy daily
reminder of living by the sea.

IT HAS
G R E AT
TRAVEL LINKS...
As much as I love it here,
it's always good to spread
your wings. Bournemouth
has its own airport, you can
get the ferry to France and
the Channel Islands from
neighbouring Poole, and can
be in London in just a few
hours on the coach. And of
course you then appreciate it
even more on your return.
To the beach!
