Welcome to Bournemouth #RespectProtectEnjoy

Welcome to Bournemouth, home of the UK's best beach - as voted in TripAdvisor's Travellers' Choice awards for the second year in a row in 2019.

As we all know, our one true love is to celebrate our uniquely beautiful part of the world, but in these strange times we continue to ask that you take all the necessary precautions ahead of your visit. Safety is paramount to us, to you and to your loved ones.

We know that following the updated guidance from the government allowing wider access to outdoor spaces, many of you will be keen to get outside and visit Bournemouth. As of 4 July we are open for visitors once more and urge everyone to RESPECT, PROTECT and ENJOY our beautiful resort.

Respect our beaches, respect our local communities, the wildlife and any specific guidelines that have been put in place.

Protect yourself and others, protect our local open spaces and beaches and protect the environment by travelling sustainably and staying local.

Enjoy getting off the beaten track, enjoy our beautiful beaches safely and enjoy supporting our local businesses.

Visit our What's Open page for the most up to date information from our attractions and activities.

If you are holding off from getting outside for now, or are self-isolating and unable to leave your home, we’re totally committed to bringing the very best of Bournemouth to you virtually. Check out our website where we have loads of information about enjoying Bournemouth from home or follow our social channels:

Now more than ever we must support the amazing local businesses that make up our community. Here you can find several businesses who are offering home delivery and online services. Some of our attraction & activity, restaurant and accommodation partners are undergoing changes in line with the latest Government guidelines, but you can still purchase gift vouchers or experience vouchers. This not only shows great support in this difficult time but it also makes a fantastic present or gift with something to look forward to in the future.

We will always be the Coast with the Most and we are ready to welcome you to Bournemouth with open arms.
