I walk from fisherman's walk to Sobo beach often and go for coffee/food. Visiting family and friends love going there too. We are very lucky to have such a great venue.

It's part of the community, it has character and soul, and it's a welcome alternative to commercialised cafes and restaurants.

It's a beautiful place to come with the children and socialise, especially in the cooler months

It’s such a wonderful spot that Bournemouth can be proud of. Any time I have friends come to visit I take them here and they think it is fantastic. Ts a truly unique spot and must be preserved

I grew up near Southbourne in Christchurch, and since SOBO Beach has been around, it’s been a joy to go to. It’s a place that brings the community together.

We spend time there with family mothers day birthdays and just meeting up it's a great atmosphere and food and drinks

We swim here, and have enjoyed many lovely coffees with family and friends on a stroll down the beach. This venue has become something the community are proud of. It simply cannot be replaced with just another coffee shop. It would be devastating to loose this unique, creative, and well-loved hub.

SOBO Beach is a special place to me because it’s part of my everyday life. I love going for a run along the beach, popping in for a coffee, and enjoying a friendly chat with familiar faces. It’s also somewhere I can spend quality time with my kids and make lovely memories together. For me, SOBO Beach is more than just a place to visit . It’s part of the community, a place to relax, recharge, connect with people, and enjoy the simple things that make life special.

Me and my teenage friends love SOBO beach to hang out at and enjoy ourselves there. We feel safe there and enjoy the vibe. Please don't get rid of SOBO Beach.

It's on one of our walking routes, pop in for coffee in the morning or a beer or two in the afternoon. Good place.

It’s a great meeting spot, place to stop while walking. Love the summer yoga event
Phoebe, Southbourne · signed 5 days ago
A real boost to the local area, casual vibe and not overly corporate like so many places. This has a much more continental feel about it and as I said is a real asset to the area.
