Our five and a half miles of seafront cliffs, promenades, beaches and facilities form the
prized jewel in the crown of Bournemouth’s century-long reign as one of Britain’s premier tourist resorts.
Today, 5.2 million UK, European and global visitors arrive in the town every year, drawn primarily by the magnificent sweep of Poole Bay. Bournemouth seafront lives large in the imagination of the public as the quintessential British beach. No other beach in the UK draws so many visitors.
Our seafront is also an extremely important public leisure and recreational amenity for local residents in the Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch conurbation and outlying hinterland.
Bournemouth Borough Council is the guardian of this stunning asset and works with a range of public, commercial and voluntary partners to manage it.
This strategy will be the essential tool for guiding internal and external investment over the next 5 years, recognising the significance of the seafront as an economic driver for the town. The key challenge will be to sustain the seafront both as a visitor attraction and public amenity, whilst preserving the fragile environmental qualities of the seafront experience.
