Amazing Destinations Magazine Autumn 2021

BOURNEMOUTH
It’s a long-term favourite of UK travellers because of its
warm microclimate and miles of sandy beaches. With a
huge variety of shops, restaurants, bars and clubs, there’s
plenty to keep you occupied. As well as award-winning
gardens, there are also many tours that embrace the
stunning coastline scenery. There’s something here for all
the family. If you’re new to watersports, you could even
take surfing lessons.
THE BRIT LIST
BRIGHTON
It continues to be one of the most popular seaside resorts
in Britain, and it’s easy to see why. Less than an hour
from London by train, Brighton is crammed with things
to do. Apart from the excitement of the nightlife, with
plenty of clubs, bars and restaurants, it’s also perfect for
all the family. In the daytime, take a trip to its famous
Royal Pavilion, a must-see attraction. Built for the
Prince Regent, later King George IV, it’s one of the most
extravagant palaces you are likely to see in Britain.
NEWQUAY
Another terrific beach destination with an array of golden,
sandy beaches close to the town centre. Every summer
the beaches, watersports and beautiful scenery draw the
crowds to Newquay, making it one of the most popular
coastal destinations in Britain. With the Blue Reef
Aquarium, Holywell Bay Fun Park and Newquay Zoo all
in the area, it’s a fantastic seaside resort for children and
adults.
BLACKPOOL
There’s nowhere quite like Blackpool! Still one of the most
visited family holiday destinations in Britain, Blackpool
has lots of fun activities for the whole family. Take the
tram along the promenade past the multitude of shops,
restaurants and amusement arcades. Blackpool Tower and
Ballroom are now iconic British attractions and should
not be missed during your stay. And if you’re a fan of
amusement parks, you must visit the famous Blackpool
Pleasure Beach, the most visited theme park in Britain.
ST.IVES
If you prefer a quieter holiday destination, St. Ives in
Cornwall is more of a traditional seaside town with pretty
sea views that have inspired generations of artists. The
sheltered coves and sandy beaches attract sun-worshippers
and swimmers, and surfers congregate to ride the waves.
Opened in 1993, the Tate St. Ives art gallery is the place
to go for art-lovers, boasting an impressive collection of
classic and contemporary art from around the world.
