Alum Bay

... and it was only this year i watched the summer fireworks from alum bay. They had a band playing and there’s a bar and cafe.

Usually we’d go up the warren – the big hill on the right as you’re driving down. Theres a footpath up to it, from near the golf course.

If you want to see The Needles, you don’t need to follow that road that leads all the way to the £3 car park. You can turn into the road to the golf course and park there for free, and follow the stony path down to the bay.
