Coastal Cruises Poole offers a really enjoyable and relaxing way to experience the beautiful Dorset coastline. The views from the water are stunning, especially around Poole Harbour and the Jurassic Coast, with plenty of interesting sights along the way. The boat is comfortable, and the atmosphere on board feels friendly and easygoing, making it great for families, couples, or solo travellers. The commentary is informative without being overwhelming, adding nice context to the scenery. Overall, it’s a memorable and refreshing experience that lets you see the coastline from a completely different perspective and is definitely worth doing if you’re in the area.

We enjoyed our coastal cruise from Poole to Swanage we went on the sea train adventure that we brought discounted through Virgin Experiences. We took the boat out at 10.30 to arrive in Swanage at 11.30 and took the boat back at 4.45 and got back at 5.45 to make a whole day out of it. We visited Corfe Castle during the day. Our little boy was free.
