Bournemouth : Attractions

There is a large selection of attractions and activities to keep visitors entertained in Bournemouth, including museums, leisure centres, an IMAX 3D cinema and of course, the Pavilion and Pier theatres.

To enjoy the nature of the region, the Stream, Heath and Woodland walks lead you through Bournemouth Gardens, Talbot Heath, Coy Pond and Meyrick Park Golf Course. Whatever your interests, it is a good idea to carefully plan your itinerary to ensure you make the most of your trip when in Bournemouth.

With an excellent coastline and harbour, many visitors take advantage of a cruise, setting off from Bournemouth Pier. The ocean provides another attraction in the form of the Bournemouth Oceanarium. Amazing marine life from all over the world can be enjoyed and understood here, making it a great attraction for both young and old.

With a seven mile beach, you will be able to find a quiet area all on your own to sunbathe and swim, build sandcastles, or play volleyball with friends. If the British weather turns nasty, the town centre has more than enough options to keep you entertained, like the Bournemouth Eye, modelled on the London Eye. In Bournemouth, you are taken 500 feet in the air where you can marvel at the English Channel and the beautiful English countryside; on clear days, it is possible to see for about 20 miles.
