COVID-19 Christchurch

Under these unprecedented circumstances, please adhere to current government guidelines.

Stay safe, support your local businesses and we’ll see you soon.

With the sea on one side, forest on the other and two rivers either side there is no shortage of indoor and outdoor activities available all year round. We have golf courses, leisure centres, tennis courts, bowling greens, a ski centre and a variety of popular beach and watersports – all ages and abilities are catered for on the Coast with the Most.

Watersports

You needn’t go far to enjoy some rippling waves at this harbourside town. Hire a self-drive motorboat and explore the safe waters (make sure to wave at the resident swans). Try your hand at sailing, windsurfing, kayaking, paddle-boarding and more with our many coastal operators. With sheltered harbour waters, meandering rivers and instructors on standby, you’ll be sure to find a watersport to suit you.

Leisure Centres & Sport Complexes

Christchurch and the surrounding areas have a great selection of leisure centres, sport complexes, clubs and gyms. Close to the town centre, the Two Riversmeet Leisure Complex offers some great sporting facilities including two swimming pools, fitness suite, 3G football pitches, squash courts, table tennis, a fabulous sports hall, indoor cycling studio and a café.

Chapel Gate, (or Bournemouth Sports Club as it is known) based next to Bournemouth Airport, is a 65-acre sports facility and home to a variety of sports including football, rugby, hockey, cricket, squash, table tennis, archery and rifle shooting. Managed by BU Community Business (BUCB), Chapel Gate regularly hosts local sports’ clubs and schools. It is also the main training and playing venue for the university sports teams.

There are several rugby clubs along the Coast with the Most so you can relax on holiday as a spectator or enjoy a fun game with friends in one of our many parks. Chapel Gate is home to Bournemouth Rugby Club (or Bournemouth Lions as they are known) and has three full-size rugby pitches and twi mini pitches.

Whatever level you’re at, from beginner to pro – there are schools, social clubs, parks and leisure centres around the Coast with the Most where you can hone your skills or compete against others.

Golf

Christchurch has some great offers when it comes to playing golf; whether you're travelling solo or spending time with friends and family. Some greens come with beautiful coastal views and others in a fabulous countryside setting. You’ll find a variety of terrains from tree-lined fairways to low-growing heathland, suitable for all ages and abilities. As a visitor, you’ll find many ‘pay to play’ courses which happily welcome non-members and cater to groups of various sizes. But it’s always a good idea to contact individual clubs and check play times, local rules and dress codes. By contacting them directly, you can also find out if they have any special offers or seasonal deals.
