Why study in Bournemouth?

With seven miles of golden sands and sparkling sea, the vibrant cosmopolitan town of Bournemouth has it all – a vast variety of shops, restaurants, a buzzing nightlife and endless countryside with beautiful award winning gardens and water sports galore. As a result of the Gulf Stream which results in mild and breezy winters, Bournemouth enjoys a climate that is not “typical English weather,” but rather a moderate environment with an above average number of sunny days. July and August usually provide the most sunshine and hottest temperatures in Bournemouth, which may even reach 30°C on occasion.
