Swanage/ Langton Matravers area
The established seaside resort of Swanage is conveniently situated near Bournemouth and Poole via the chain link ferry across the mouth of Poole harbour, just a few miles away. Swanage's safe sandy beach offers amongst other things board sailing, water skiing, "banana" rides, scuba diving and a traditional Punch and Judy show. The Steam Railway, run by enthusiasts, links Swanage with Corfe Castle and Norden and occasionally Thomas the Tank Engine and the Fat Controller visit.

In the early July of each year the Jazz Festival takes place, along with the Carnival and Regatta Week at the end of July/ beginning of August and the Folk Festival in September. The New Year street celebrations in Swanage are rumoured to be the best in the country outside Trafalgar Square and Scotland.
