Bournemouth is a seaside resort town in the county of Dorset on the south coast of England. Bournemouth is the premier summer resort on the Dorset coast and is especially renowned for its seven miles of golden sandy beaches. All year round, the town center offers excellent shopping, with a good mix of national and independent stores, and an eclectic variety of restaurants, cafes, and bars. Bournemouth has grown into a thriving seaside resort, and many of the big hotels offer spa treatments of their own, as well as spa and beauty boutiques peppered throughout the town center catering to men as well as women. The pine trees still exist, and visitors can still stroll through ‘Pine Walk’ in Bournemouth Gardens today to breathe in the healthy air. During the summer, the Pine Walk Open Air Art Exhibition is held here. In recent years, Bournemouth's growing population of students, LGBTQ+ community, and surfers have given it a more bohemian image than a typical south coast retirement town, leading to the nickname "BoMo."
