Fun for all at Shanklin Seafront There is plenty to do and see for kids of all ages this summer at the superb, new-look Shanklin seafront. Shanklin Seafront really is like a traditional amusement pier, just turned 90 degrees and placed on land. Whether you're here for a quick visit or looking for a day full of activities, Shanklin beach has it all! The beach itself provides a safe playground for the kids and is ideal for paddling and swimming in the summer months. Just across the promenade sits our great range of amusements including the 3 crazy golf courses of Pirates Cove, Jungle Golf and 18-hole Crazy Golf. There's our indoor play area, summer amusement arcade, ticket town, go karts and outdoor fun park too! Further along the seafront , you'll find a seaside beach store selling everything you need to make your day at the beach perfect. There are buckets and spades, blow- up dinghies and a great range of Isle of Wight souvenirs to take home with you. Our restaurant/café on the seafront is great for stopping off for a hot or cold drink, a quick ice cream or a little snack after a hard day playing on the Esplanade. www.visitilife.com 75
