Beautiful walks and views, nice visitor centre to mooch around and a nice walk down to
Mudeford spit to the fancy beach huts. You can grab lunch at the café on the spit or get a little ferry over to Mudeford Quay for
fresh seafood and a pint. Free parking there if you’d prefer to drive, but defiantly go for a walk here.

Beautiful beaches, while you’re there visit Harbour Heights Hotel, is the best place to get a cup of tea (or alcoholic beverage) with an amazing view overlooking Poole harbour. One of my favourite thing to do in Sandbanks is enjoy a BBQ on the little
harbour beach and watch some awesome sunsets. You can rent paddleboards for cheap too, and go for a swim, you may even spot
Harry Redknapp!

Purbeck breezer bus service offers trips from Bournemouth Town Centre to Swanage, you can hop on and off as much as
you like. I like getting off at Studland village for a visit to the Bankes’ Arms Pub and a stroll to old Harry’s rocks. Swanage is a lovely
little seaside town and feels completely different to Bournemouth and Poole bay—worth a visit. Visit the Lifeboat station.
