As much as we all wish for clear skies and sunny weather, sometimes mother nature has other plans for us. On those dreary, rainy days in Poole, don’t let the rain ruin your plans. Here’s some ideas of what you can do to keep you entertained and dry.
Make your way over to the Dolphin Shopping Centre. With over 100 stores, you’re sure to find something to your taste. Get your retail therapy on at popular shops like H&M and New Look or discover some local gems at independent boutiques. Don’t forget to grab a bite to eat at one of the many restaurants and cafes located inside the centre. If the rain eases off, or you have packed a brolly, make your way outside of the centre, where you will find Kingland Crescent and a whole host of independent shops and businesses to explore.
Although it’s raining outside, you can still enjoy the water slides and other water attractions indoors at Splashdown Poole. Let loose and have some fun in the wave pool or take on the terrifying Dragon’s Lair, a dark and twisting water slide. If you are wanting to stick with something drier, then Lemur Landings is an exciting alternative! The soft play areas, climbing structures and slides, ensure endless entertainment for energetic youngsters.
The Lighthouse Poole, is a modern art centre is a cultural hub for all things artsy and creative. From film screenings to live performances, there’s always something happening here. So why not spend a rainy evening watching a theatre show or film in one of their modern and stylish auditoriums.
Embrace your artistic side at the Poole Park Pottery Studio, where you can decorate your own pottery. This creative and relaxing indoor activity is perfect for individuals, families, or groups looking to craft personalised souvenirs.
The Project Climbing Centre’s state-of-the-art climbing walls offer diverse challenges, from gentle slopes for newcomers to intricate routes that test the skills of experienced climbers. The venue provides a welcoming and supportive environment, making it a fantastic place to conquer rainy day blues while staying active and fostering a sense of achievement.
Don’t let a little rain dampen your spirits – get out there and enjoy everything this beautiful town has to offer.
