Bar and restaurant, it’s a 15 min walk from the quay, good food, fantastic views from raised terrace over looking the Solent. It’s also the start of the coastal sea wall, a beautiful walk. Highly recommended

Great for the kids with a mini themed activity park.
Built in 1833 it is the oldest lido in the UK, and at 110 metres long by 50 metres wide it is also one of the largest in size and in volume with 1.7 million gallons of water. Oh and it's cold
