Summer at Boscombe Spa ☀️
Paddleboards from Down The Line Surf Shop. A fresh morning on the water. Brunch at Flamingo.
Sometimes the best days are the simplest.
Feels Like Holiday 🦩
Fifty years of Sea Road, Boscombe Spa.
Pic 1 - The Beachcomber, a seaside restaurant for a different era. Candyfloss and Formica. Thermos flasks and Ford Cortinas. Next door, a Beach Gift Shop and Coach Tours office. 
Pic 2 - Parade of elephants making their way down toward the sea to cool off, straight from Billy Smart’s Circus at Boscombe Hippodrome (now the @o2academybmouth). 
Pic 3 - The present day, @downthelinesurf_bournemouth - Boards, Hardware, Clothing - serving the local and visiting surfing community. 
Pic 4 - Flamingo Café Bar, open daily from 9am-late 🦩
Boscombe Spa has always had a little bit of magic about it. A place that surprises you. That refuses to be ordinary.
The names above the door have changed. The world has changed. But the sea is still there. The sun still hits the same spot in the afternoon. And people still make their way down Sea Road to enjoy the beautiful Boscombe beach. 
Let’s have a great summer ☀️
Rave warehouses at 16. Ministry of Sound at 21. Back behind the decks at 40-something.
Brunch with… Abi Joy Lemon is live.

Brunch With… Anna Sharp
We’re back with another edition of Brunch With… — our series of conversations with interesting people over food, drink and good company at Flamingo. 
This time, we sat down with local padel coach, community builder and former elite tennis player Anna Sharp at Flamingo to talk about her journey from junior tennis star to one of Dorset’s most recognisable faces in padel.
From competing among the UK’s top junior tennis players to becoming one of Dorset’s most recognisable figures in padel, Anna’s story is one of resilience, reinvention and a willingness to embrace every opportunity that comes her way.
We chatted about sport, competition, coaching, and why she believes the sport’s incredible rise is only just beginning.
