What to do and see in Bournemouth, England: The Best Museums

August 3, 2021 Russell Mellin

Bournemouth’s seven miles of beach and exceptionally warm microclimate make it a favorite of U.K. travelers. There’s something for everyone here, whether you’re a watersports fanatic (try surfing lessons!) or just want to let your kids splash around in the calm waters. For a traditional Bournemouth vacation, rent a classic beach hut.

This place is a real find. Packed to the rafters with wonderful specimens! Special thanks to Keith who showed us around. Mark Spencer for his unbelievable up close talk on all things from Spiders to Stick Insects - and to Joyce up stairs who told us all about Taheema. This place is wonderful, will most definitely return. Entry fee is donation.

We’ve been here for play dates and a workshop for kids (mines 4) on light- we had free play with the sensory lights and dinosaurs, we made things and experimented with light, shadows and colours, it was great fun and the staff were helpful and knew their stuff, we also went in the planet/ stars dome and learnt about light in space. Great value for money
