Poole is an ideal place to start your journey. Reputedly the second largest natural harbour in the world, Poole Harbour itself is worthy of a number of days exploring. Home to the famous Brownsea Island, a day of cruising around the various islands will give the photograhic enthusiast loads of opportunities for great pictures.
To the west of Poole is Studland, Swanage, Lulworth and Weymouth with many pretty bays along the way which provide ideal stopping off points for swimming, exploring or lunch. This coastline is the start of the Jurassic coast of Dorset, a world heritage site renowed for its beauty and importanct geology and fossil remains.
The coast can only really be fully appreciated from the sea and the voyage westwards is a truly memorable one.

The fishing here is good with mackerel and bass in abundance.
Going east one passes the blue flag Sandbanks beaches on the port side, a great place to anchor up and take a tender to the beach or for a swim off the back of the boat. Further east, having passed Bournemouth, one enters the Solent, a mecca for sailors, with its lengthy maritime history and stopping off points such as Cowes and Yarmouth on the Isle of Wight. To the north, on the mainland, you will find popular places like Lymington and the beautiful Beaulieu river.
Wherever you want to cruise we can plan the day to suit your requirements.
