Swanage Tips

Getting to Swanage from Poole by road takes a while as the A351 road goes around the Purbeck peninsula. A quick route is via the ferry, which operates from Sandbanks in Poole to Shell Beach at Studland, which is only 2 1/2 miles from Swanage. The ferry runs frequently throughout the day and evening and costs around £3.50 each way and cuts down journey time considerably. During easter and summer holidays, long queues are to be expected in both directions. - Denise
