Bournemouth In Algal Bloom
Beach Hut owners making their way down to the beach in the last two weeks have been concerned at the aroma and look of the water. The water has taken on a colour of rusty brown with layers of scum on the surface. Fears around what the source of the brown colour and smell can be allayed, its not caused by the sewage system unable to cope with the heavy downpours that can be experienced in a British summer and it is not caused by polution from a stricken ship leaking oil into our water, The cause ...

Getting year round use from your Beach Hut
You don't have to wait for the glorious sunshine in the summer to visit your beach hut, make plans and you can have just as much fun in your beach hut over the winter.
