  This isn’t even technically my local beach, but I love it so much here. The drinks here make it everytime I come.

  My hubby and friends and family regularly walk and then drink and eat here. It is the best place in the area. Just a great vibe.

  Much needed coffee stop on dog walks in the winter. Love a summer evening drink here also. Been a meeting place since I was a kid

  I travel from Reading to visit Sobo beach, it's quieter than Bournemouth but still has amazing amenities, I love it on a hot sunny day but also on a cold day, I've had many hot chocolates in the bus after a chilly seaside walk- it's my favorite place to visit!

  One of the best things about Bournemouth to be honest. Why are they taking away something that’s so enjoyable for local people of all ages?

  I live here, it’s the best addition to Southbourne and surrounding areas I’ve seen in my 45 years of living here. It cannot go.

  Great afternoon venue. Food and drinks good. Brings lots of locals and visitors together. We need it!

  The community which is flourishing with SOBO Beach as the hub feels special - just knowing that exists makes me feel happy and hopeful about where I live

  Great venue for all ages and people. Lovely food, great events. It’s a massive part of the community!!

  Sobo beach is a great place to meet friends on the beach. It has a relaxed vibe with a real community at the heart. It would be very sad to see it go given it’s already thriving. It is very disappointing that yet again our local community has not been consulted during this process.

  SOBO has become the very spirit and identity of Southbourne, a fun and vibrant place for all to enjoy. To lose this would be a great loss to the area.

  It’s a great place for a coffee, watching the sunset and a very safe social place for a woman to sit and have a drink by herself after work

  Perfect coffee spot post swim or beach walk! Lovely for night out drinks with the sunset too - dog friendly and outdoors! Perfect for the local area

  They’re awesome, love coming down there for a coffee and food. They run it well.

  Great to have a community space all year round. No need to book. Kid friendly, great music and drinks but by the beach.

  Wonderful local spot that I've frequented on many occasions

  It’s a true community hub, which is rare and important, don’t let it fall to culture less money making machine, let us keep some soul in the community.

  A space for our sisters of Stoke to meet, it supports mental health. Is a place to meet for wild swimming which means it’s safer as other people are around.
