Beautiful soft golden sand on the iconic Sandbanks peninsular however it is a one way in and one way out apart from taking the chain ferry to Studland the gateway of the purbecks It’s open outlook from Poole harbour with Old Harry Rocks visible on a clear day is amazing and on a sunny day boats and other leisure craft can be seen making the most of the summer scene. Known as millionaires Row it is the most expensive housing areas on a small headland. Arrive early if you want to get a parking space on a sunny day. One side of the harbour is the sheltered windsurfing /paddle boarding calm 1.5 meters deep side which on low tide will go nearly all the way out or the coast side the beach A large car park covering both sides will give you the opportunity to swim or walk the beach on both sides doing a round connection

A big must to see this stunning Cathedral with Britain’s tallest spire, largest Cathedral Close and Cloisters. The worlds oldest mechanical clock and the best preserved original 1215 Magna Carta. Everything all in one nautical place. Close to the town. A beautiful walk to the Mill which is now a converted pub where you can see the workings of the mill while you enjoy a drink.

Park in the car park and walk either on the beach around the headland, around the nature reserve which is tidal (you can also hitch a ride on a land train ) or head up over the headland - Warren Hill and choose a different route back. It can be windy but it’s exhilarating with a passenger ferry at the point to Mudeford Quay where you will find children catching crabs , a fish mongers, cafe selling fish and chips and a pub. Always popular with all age groups
