We walked down to the pier to see all the memorial plaques placed into the boards, it’s only £1.50 per adult, a little bit of heritage for a little bit of change.

Sit and have a bag of chips or an ice cream and watch the world go by lot's of boats and wild life, there is a small ferry that takes you to the other side of the water, near the Captains Table. Boat hire available but not cheap. Catch the ferry to Hengestbury Head or Tucton tea rooms for a game of crazy golf, or just walk along the waters edge

Fantastic views, free entry, interesting information and fun little free attractions? What's not to love?! Of course, the stalls there are a little overpriced but that's to be expected from a touristy thing but you are free to bring your own snacks and drinks.

Up until recently, I haven't been to the bmth pier for a while. Having now a amazing rock climbing and activity centre called Rock Reef, our kids live it there. Keeps them active and being on the pier just makes it different and fun.
