What to expect

Bournemouth was founded by a man who planted pine trees on a heath to cure his hay fever — and somehow became Britain's most popular seaside resort. This app-led scavenger hunt takes you from the town centre down to the seafront on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time. • Follow clues through the Lower Gardens to Bournemouth Pier and the War Memorial — three landmarks that trace the resort from empty heath to Victorian pleasure ground • Start whenever suits you and take all the time you need — no time limit, no pressure • Works for families, couples, and friend groups; photo challenges on the pier and in the gardens add a fun competitive edge Available in 24 languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian — see the full list when booking and choose yours when you start the game in the app. Around 2 hours - any group size. One man's hay fever built all of this — your phone has the whole story.
