  • Dancing in Dorset Every Monday night, at 7:45PM the doors open to the Woodlands Hall, Trades and Labour Club, 485 Ashley Road, Parkstone, Poole allowing this Exciting Modern Latino Jive Experience to Launch into life. From the moment you enter, it soon becomes obvious why this outstanding evening is voted one of the best nights out on the south coast.

Every Tuesday night at 7:40pm the doors open to the Royal British Legion, 593 Wimborne Road, Winton, Bournemouth. This great venue gives a more personal, warm and friendly atmosphere.

  • Springdale park sometimes, in Broadstone
  • Skaters: Baiter and Roosmore skate parks. Townies: The usal Concret buss station and malls. The better kids (Skaters, grundgers, goths and normies) go to Bournemouth. Townies are wankers who hang round there gippo esates with cider thinking they are kids of the time. They go to Tower Park Lesure Complex and skaters hang round tesco car park.
  • Sea view in Parkstone,Parrs Plantation in Oakdale,Outside KFC in Parkstone, Branksome Rec,dont go there though if ur not local u WILL BE MUGGED!Its well ruff
  • a cool place is penn hill near brankesome woods some really fit ones are there on friday nights or at the carpark opposite(under 18)
  • the public toilets, great for meeting chaps!!! and theres a handy chemist shop within 500 yards to purchase any thing that you might need...
  • The beach! so good you won't want to go pubbing or clubbing
  • Poole quay is great for bikers in the summertime, loads of parking, loads of bikes, especially tuesdays. Come down and say hi! even the rain is friendly!
  • A reader writes... I would just like to say having visited several of your tourist reports that they are in the main, badly written sad depictions by sad people who do not respect the opportunities and beauty around them. I would caution any tourist authority or individual responsible for a tourist function to take any part. The concept is excellent, but the pratice is flawed by lack of regulation, which will allow any late night freak with a modem to submit his or her pathetic, unwarranted views. Yours sadly, a sad resident of Poole.
  • At the top of Tower Park- alcohol available from M+W or Tescos for young revellers. Meshers can also sometimes be found in Poole Park on summer evenings
  • Shore Road, Sandbanks. Whitecliff Rec. Branksome Woods.
  • The Oakdale Petrol Garage, next door to the old Oakdale School. Particularly favoured by under 18`s although you do find a few taking drugs and alcohol. Many of the youths of Oakdale find this area an attraction due to the lack of things to do in Oakdale, Poole.
  • The roundabout up by Rockley Caravan Park.Great for seasonal Totty spotting(under 18s mainly)
  • The area already mentioned is known as The Toast-rack due to the shape of the parking area. Another teenage haunt is Broadstone Wreck, a must for drunken fumbles in the dark.
  • Broadstone Broadway - try sitting on the wall outside the Church, it helps if you have a naff old car with wide wheels parked nearby.

What is Knowhere?

The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!

In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor (the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.

We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!

If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.
