If you are thinking of visiting the club then bring all the family. There is lots to see and do in this part of Dorset. The photo opposite shows the coast about 7 miles South of the club. The picture, taken from one of our aircraft, looks East, with Durdle Door in the centre of the picture. There are plenty of coastal walks and safe and sandy beaches at Weymouth and Sandbanks.

| About 1 mile to the South of the club is Monkey
World - ideal for children and adults alike. Monkey World is an Ape rescue
centre - perhaps you have seen them on TV. The centre was set up in 1987 to
provide a home for abused Spanish beach chimpanzees.

| If you would like to try your hand at shooting
then Purbeck Shooting School is nearby. We do enjoy good relations with them -
useful as we fly overhead sometimes! They offer clay and game shooting.

The Tank museum at Bovington is well worth a visit
(about 2 miles from the club). It houses the world's finest international
collection of Armoured Fighting Vehicles. If you have never stood in front of a
WW2 tank then you will be taken aback by the sheer size of them - especially the
Tiger.
