Bournemouth Breaks

When it comes to choosing what to do in Bournemouth a great place to start is with a trip up in the Bournemouth Eye, a balloon which is held suspended above the town. From here you can get a view across the whole town, making it a great space from which to pick out your sun-bathing spot! There’s more to do on Bournemouth beaches than just sunbathe however: many offer surfing or body boarding lessons.

The Russell-Cotes Art Museum is an often-overlooked museum collecting random and eclectic bits of paintings and gems from around the world. For those looking for a show the Bournemouth International Arena and Bournemouth Theatre play host to a huge range of music concerts, theatrical shows and other performances.

If you want a break from the urban life then Bournemouth is surrounded by beautiful countryside. The nearby Brownsea Island (found in Poole Harbour) is an idyllically peaceful spot which is also one of the last strongholds for England’s indigenous Red Squirrel population. With so much to offer Bournemouth is the perfect holiday destination for those looking for something a little different from their holiday.
