  • Its such a beautiful area, ive enjoyed many occasions with friends and family here. The music is great with a fabulous atmosphere. They are very respectful of the surroundings

  • We used this facility frequently and closing the site would be a massive shame. The council had plenty of time to ensure there was no break in service and have failed to do the job for which they are paid. Keep the site running, find a way!

  • It’s an amazing community meeting point catering for people at all ages with different hobbies. The current owners are the key to its success - it’s revitalised the area in a very positive way.

  • I visit all year round as it’s round the corner from me…the only place I feel comfortable going by myself as there’s such a lovely vibe

    A supporter in Southbourne · signed 4 days ago

  • It's more than a community. Loved by everyone.

    A supporter in Southbourne · signed 4 days ago

  • I love the communities that are formed around Sobo beach. The yoga classes in the morning, the run clubs, the silent disco and it’s generally a nice place to have a drink and enjoy the sunset

    A supporter in Bournemouth · signed 4 days ago

  • Lovely unique venue that attracts people from far and wide. It's Bohemian atmosphere and popularity are a good reason to continue. It's a case of knowing the price of the lease, but not the value overall to BCP in revenue overall!

    Gail, Wimborne · signed 4 days ago

  • Best beach cafe in Bournemouth where people come together either for swim, Socialise, watch the amazing views

    A supporter in Bournemouth · signed 4 days ago

  • We need more spaces like this along the beach, it’s important we don’t lose what little good we have here.

    Alex, Poole · signed 4 days ago

  • We regularly walk the dog on Southbourne beach and love the area. It’s important the council listen to what local people say, and take their views into account.
