Head on over to Santa-Fe Fun Park in Swanage if you’re after some simple, good old-fashioned fun.
This isn’t your everyday amusement park, it’s a family-run business that’s been around since 1965.
They’re open seasonally, so make sure to catch them when the sun’s out. The park sits on a hill a hill with a pretty cool view of the sea. It’s definitely worth checking out.
They’ve got your usual fairground goodies. The attractions are aimed at children but if you’re up for a bit of friendly competition, try out their crazy golf.
They’ve got a Pirate Adventure and a Jurassic Dinosaur Adventure mini-golf course. And if you fancy some arcade action, they’ve got that covered too.
Their Hungry Shark Restaurant will sort you out when your stomach starts to grumble.
The place is known for dishing up the best burgers in town (their words), so give that a go.
If burgers aren’t your thing, don’t sweat it, they’ve got a pretty decent menu with plenty of other stuff to choose from, including vegetarian dishes.
So, if you’re looking for things to do in Swanage with your family or friends, Santa-Fe Fun Park is a solid bet for an hour or two of fun.
Don’t just take my word for it, swing by and see for yourself.
Enjoy!
