Amazing spot. highly recommended.

Hengistbury Head is a dramatic headland located in Dorset, England, jutting into the English Channel between Bournemouth and Mudeford. It's a place of international importance due to its rich archaeology, diverse wildlife, and unique geology. Declared a Local Nature Reserve in 1990, it forms part of the Christchurch Harbour Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). It also holds various other designations like Special Area of Conservation and Special Protection Area, highlighting its importance for wildlife.

Winter: Sunday mornings in clear weather is very busy; and Summer: All fine weather leads to busy promenades. Generally though the people are navigable when running, but would avoid cycling during busy periods due to dogs and children off leads. :)

The council don't clear the promenade path that often so it is usually covered in sand, especially in winter in areas where the sea wall is low. The cliffs are liable to landslips too. If you don't mind running on sand then it's not too bad.

Bournemouth's 'other' pier, which is quieter and also free to access. It closes overnight although times vary from season to season and with the weather. There's a Harvester pub opposite plus cafes and shops nearby. Probably the best spot to get a view of the whole of Poole Bay.

July 2016 – Boscombe Pier opens mini golf course with a difference! In July 2016 it was reported that the UK’s first ever eco-friendly mini golf attraction which had opened on the pier the previous month, had proven very successful.

September 2019 – Should Boscombe Pier be privatised to ease traffic congestion? The suggestion came after the BCP Council cabinet member for transport, councillor Andy Hadley, said he was “keen” to look at water buses as a way of reducing congestion across the conurbation. Opposition to booze at Boscombe Pier Members of a BCP Council licensing sub-committee were considering a proposal put forward by Reefside to sell alcohol from its stores at the entrance to the pier. But there had been heavy opposition to the plans from councillors and people living on the seafront over concerns it would lead to an “inevitable increase” in crime and anti-social behaviour. Reefside Catering applied for a licence to sell alcohol from its kiosks until 7pm seven days a week. March 2022 – UFOs spotted over Boscombe Pier! In March, it was reported that a man had described three unidentified flying objects (UFOs) he saw in the sky above Boscombe Pier as “metallic, silver and spinning”. November 2022 – Water quality to be monitored at Boscombe Pier In November it was reported that sensors could be put on Boscombe Pier to measure the water quality as BCP Council’s lead member for environment cast doubt on the current sewage alerts. December 2023 – Boscombe and Penarth Piers – The bases for Christmas sea-swimming The substructures of thse two piers formed a notable backdrop to sea-swimming mornings which have become a popular ritual at Christmas.
