Location

We have direct access to the quiet and protected waters of Poole harbour. When afloat you will enjoy a beautiful sailing area bounded by the unspoilt shores and islands of the harbour, well away from the busy waterways.

The sandy beach is an ideal place for a picnic, while meals and bar snacks can be obtained at the nearby Shell Bay restaurant.
