BOAT TRIP TO POOLE HARBOUR, DURDLE DOOR & LULWORTH COVE, WAKEBOARDING
Hi Everyone! This is a little video of the bank-holiday trip I took with 4 friends to visit Dorset - you might have seen it on my Instastories! This is the first time I've gone this far west via sea!

Leaving early Saturday morning from Langstone Harbour, Hayling Island, on our friend's speed boat (A Searay for those who are interested), we motored past Portsmouth and then crossed the Solent over to Yarmouth, Ilse Of Wight, to refuel at the marina. We then made our way through the beautiful morning light past the Needles and on towards Poole.
It took us around 2 hours to get to Old Harry's Rocks (at the entrance to Poole Harbour). As there was no wind the water was incredibly flat, which meant perfect wake boarding conditions for us!
After a superb session (although the water was freezing as it is after all still May in the UK) we carried on into Poole Harbour and up to Cobbs Quay to refuel again - ready for more exploring!
We then gently motored up Wareham River, which is gorgeous in every sense of the word. I felt like I'd been transported into Africa with the thick sun-burnt reed banks and wildlife such as stalks and herons jumping out from the gently curving river banks on either side. But I'd recommend taking great care navigating up here as the river is very narrow and shallow (our depth-sounder was beeping nearly the entire way, meaning less than 3 ft). But... absolutely worth it as at the very top of the river there are 2 very picturesque pubs. We moored up on the quay side wall here and had a very delicious lunch at a pub fittingly called the Quay Inn.
We took our time leaving the pub as having been in the baking sun all day it was a welcome break to be in the shade. By the time we finally birthed at Poole Harbour Marina for our first night it was already 7pm. We quickly showered off the salt and sun-cream from the day in the very decent marina facilities, and we met friends in the near by Slug and Lettuce for some cool drinks, before settling down in our soft bunks at about midnight. It's amazing how much you can fit into a day when you leave at 5.30am!
The following day we had a large full English breakfast at the cafe just opposite the marina entrance and picked up picnic food from the little Tescos just next door to take with us for the day. We then left to explore the Jurassic Coast at about 10.30am.
It took 2 hours following the stunning white cliff coast line before we reached the famous Durdle Door. Being the bank holiday it was packed with holidaymakers and we were very glad to be arriving in our own time by boat and not walking along the steep cliff top path to access the beach by land. When we arrived we were the only boat there, but soon a few others came along for us to make friends with and some jet skies too. Here we paddled our little blow up dingy, snorkelled in the clear waters and basked in the sunshine.
Leaving in the late afternoon we headed back East to Lulworth Cove and chugged into the peaceful but busy beautiful anchorage to eat our picnic lunch. We also paddled to shore (rather precariously with all 4 of us in our little blow up dingy - lets just say my bum did not remain dry!) and got refreshing ice creams in the very quaint Lulworth Village before returning to Poole Marina at 9.30pm. After showering it was too late for restaurants to still be serving food, so we simply ordered a Domino's Pizza to be delivered to the boat! A perfect end to the 2nd day!
On Monday morning we fulled up again ready for our journey home. We took the same route back via Yarmouth and this time ended our fantastic trip at our sailing club in Chichester Harbour.
The weather topped 28.7C (83.6F) making it the hottest May bank holiday on record!
