5 Best Things To Do In Bournemouth, England
If you're looking for a top of the range popular English seaside resort then Bournemouth in Dorset is the town for you. After spending six years in the town itself, I found it a fantastic place to chill out, party, work and relax in a town buzzing and caught up in a happy spirit. Here's a top 5 things for you to see and do in the town!
1. Bournemouth's beaches
The main attraction of Bournemouth is the epic coastline and of course Bournemouth is graced with splendid beaches. There are so many different beaches too so it suits all types of travellers. There are beaches to relax, beaches to party, beaches to watch sunset and just beaches! Check out Boscombe beach, Southbourne beach and even Alum Chine. The coastline is wide and varied. The beaches have won awards for their cleanliness too.
2. A pub crawl in Bournemouth
I love pub crawls and I love my quirky bars, promotions and everything that goes with the madness of nights out drinking. In Bournemouth you will find an endless amount of bars, clubs, pubs and restaurants all meeting your required taste. The names of bars and pubs may change a lot and have done since I left there, but my favourites were the Dolphin (Springbourne), The Moon in the Square, The Goat and Tricycle and in the past Jumpin Jaks. These days Bournemouth attracts a lot of stag and hen nights and weekends especially in the summer and the party atmosphere and vibe at night is unrivalled in England.
3. The Wave Balloon
This massive balloon known as the Wave Balloon appears only in the Spring and Summer months. It is a large hot air balloon attached by rope and hoisted up from Bournemouth's seafront gardens. It's hard to miss as you walk down by the seafront and a trip up in it offers immense views.
4. Russell-Cotes Art Gallery and Museum
This is actually quite untouristy and unknown even by Bournemouth standards but it is unique and totally worth a visit. Mixing Italian, Scottish and Japanese influences this serves as your art experience in the popular seaside town. Best of all it won't be too busy and has a view over the beach!
5. Watching Football: The Cherries, AFC Bournemouth
Dean Court stadium which is also known as the Goldstands is home to the local football team AFC Bournemouth. They attract good crowds, especially in the summer months and offer a great value for money standard of football. The Cherries are a great team to watch.
You will get a more authentic and real life English football atmosphere in the lower divisions, and watching 90 minutes at Dean Court will give you a great experience. You might even fall in love and become a fan, like I did ;-)
How to get to Bournemouth
A bus and train journey from London is the best option. Fast, easy and cheap! You'll be ready to see Bournemouth in a few hours.
You might also be surprised to hear that Bournemouth has an airport and you might pick up a cheap flight if you're lucky!
So that's a top 5 for you to see and do in Bournemouth - it's a great English town and you will love it.
