South Coast
Poole

Poole is home to Europe's largest natural harbour, a haven for wildlife, sailing and other water sports.

A maritime experience complete with luxurious golden sands, ancient history and the backdrop of the Jurassic Coast awaits you.

Poole is an ideal choice for a memorable summer getaway. Explore the historic quayside, host to visiting tall ships, fishing vessels and luxury motor yachts, before delving into the heart of the Old Town to discover more about this town’s links to its maritime past. Poole is also known for its links to  pottery and you can still pick up a beautiful unique pottery gift or paint a memento of your own on the Quay. Why not book a boat trip from the quay to discover the harbour’s unique islands and striking peninsula. Stop off on Brownsea Island and enjoy a fascinating day out and maybe see the famous red squirrels!

The town bustles in summer with its many eateries and plenty of al fresco dining opportunities. Treat your family to a memorable dining experience; book a table with a view at one of our many fabulous restaurants, cafes, bistros and bars and enjoy the longer warm evenings. Poole is home to some of the finest seafood in the south with restaurants boasting envious seascapes.

Head to the coast for a relaxing break to recharge those batteries and find some of the finest golden sandy beaches. With so many things to do along the beautiful south coast throughout the year, it is little wonder our visitors return again and again. Come and make some unforgettable memories. Whether it is a short break, your summer holiday or even if you're popping to the coast for the day, there is plenty for everyone.
