Overview

Day trips galore

You don’t have to venture far to tap into Bournemouth’s best bits. There’s the Oceanarium, but if being outdoors by the water is more your thing, make a beeline for Hengistbury Head. Fancy venturing further afield? Think strolls around Corfe Castle or the New Forest, shopping in Southampton or even picnics on the pier in Brighton.

Calendars at the ready

Depending on what you’re into, this coastal area has stacks for you to add to your calendar. Who’s for a catching a gig at the O2 Academy, or maybe an AFC Bournemouth match? A-list actor Michael B Jordan part-owns the football club! Around in the summer? Flock to Lulworth Castle for the loud sounds of Bestival (usually held annually in July).

Walk this way…

Whether you’re pottering around the town of Poole or flower-spotting in the Lower Gardens, Bournemouth’s an ambler’s paradise. But it’s the mighty Durdle Door in Dorset that steals the show. Part of the jaw-dropping Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site, the iconic limestone arch will hook your camera’s lens immediately.

Top local attractions in Bournemouth

Bournemouth Beach

Life’s a beach in Bournemouth! This vast stretch of bronzed sands was ranked the UK’s number one by Tripadvisor in 2024, so take the pros’ word for it. It’s clean with huts for hire, and there’s the fun KidZone too.

Bournemouth Aviation Museum

Did you know, before we came Jet2.com, we originated as the airline Channel Express, based in Bournemouth? So we’re coming full circle! But that’s not the only information for plane fans – pay a visit to Bournemouth Aviation Museum. There’s everything from Hawker Hunters to an Avro Vulcan! You can even climb into cockpits.

Russell-Cotes Art Gallery & Museum

Swing by one of the last Victorian houses ever built in England, and you’ll stumble upon a time capsule of halls, studies and drawing rooms, adorned with fine art and sculptures. Four grand galleries exhibit the fascinating works of Russell-Cotes, and keep your eye on the date as music events can sometimes be on.
