Seaside Award-Winning Beaches in Dorset

Fourteen of the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole beaches were presented with seaside awards in 2025, including Bournemouth Pier, Sandbanks, and a family favourite Southbourne Beach, which also holds a Blue Flag too. Over 137 seaside awards were presented to UK beaches in 2024 and Dorset, the gateway between South East England and the South West, was one the highest winners of this award.

Many of the Dorset seaside award winners also hold the Blue Flag awards too.
