The Poole / Poole Quay area
Poole Quay is an exciting, ever-changing blend of maritime activity and a focal point for a wide range of entertainment and leisure activities. Pleasure craft offer trips direct from the Quay to Brownsea Island, Sandbanks and beyond, whilst anglers can book fishing trips at the Fisherman's Quay. If you simply want to promenade along the waterfront, past the visitors marina, have a meal and a drink then the Quayside and Old Town areas are packed with restaurants, pubs and wine bars offering huge variety and choice.
From the Quay, shoppers can stroll up the pedestrianized High Street, which offers a wide range of retail outlets and facilities. Safe Blue Flag sandy beaches at Sandbanks and Branksome Chine are just 15 minutes away by car and the natural beauty of The New Forest is approximately 30 minutes distance away. A short trip on the Sandbanks chain ferry offers the option of even more beautiful beaches skirted by sand dunes and walks in the historic Purbeck Hills.
