Bournemouth Pier allows dogs to be kept on the lead at all times. Some of the attractions don’t allow dogs but you can stop off at the dog-friendly Key West Bar & Grill Restaurant.

Bournemouth Pier has various attractions, amusements, boat trips, restaurants, cafes, bars and fishing decks. Initially built in 1856 as wood, rebuilt with iron, and then as concrete, this has been the heart of Bournemouth’s seafront for over 150 years.

The pier does charge access which helps with the significant upkeep costs.
