Sandbanks

From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.

Sandbanks is a small spit jutting out over the mouth of Poole harbour near Bournemouth in the south of England. It contains one of the most popular beaches in the area. Sandbanks, whose main road is known as 'millionaires row' is only 1km2, and, due to the high value of property in the United Kingdom, has the third highest land value by area in the world.

Sandbanks is connected to Studland by a chain ferry across the mouth of the Harbour.
