  • It such a good community space, skillet discos and Sunday sessions to yoga and beach clean ups. Why would you want to change it up, they have it spot on there.

  • All year round community Adds a variety of venues to the beach rather than everything becoming a rock water

  • Sobo beach has been such a great addition to Southbourne. I have a group of friends who live in Southbourne and it becomes our meeting place when I come down. It’s always busy, people love the place including me. Save this place!

  • Beach walking with my dog. Favourite place for coffee. Good vibe.

    A supporter in Bournemouth · signed 5 days ago

  • Its unique vibe, its quirky set up, the bringing together of people, the very fact it is not a swanky restaurant. Losing it would be another sign of greed in a world being destroyed by greed.

    James, Boscombe · signed 5 days ago

  • It’s one of the early opening places that serve coffee

    Faith, Bournemouth · signed 5 days ago

  • They are community minded and the way it is set up does not overwhelm the coast which works well for the area.

    Jan, Southbourne · signed 5 days ago

  • Every Sunday in the summer they have a DJ with great music and cocktails. It’s a great way to spend the afternoon with friends.

  • It’s big part of my community. SOBO Beach currently serves as a vital meeting ground for local sea swimmers, dog walkers, veterans' support networks, and mental health groups.

    Claire, Ferndown · signed 5 days ago

  • Love the energy it brings all year - feels like a wonderful apres-ski place in winter, then like being abroad on a beach holiday in summer. Children LOVE it too with the bus. It’s quirky and brilliant. Please don’t get rid of it.
