Vote for Ventnor Paddling Pool in the Seaside Heritage Network contest before it closes

Time is running out to cast your vote for Ventnor Paddling Pool in the 2024 Seaside Heritage Network’s Bucket and Spade List.

Will Myles from Visit Isle of Wight says that Ventnor Paddling Pool is currently sitting in the Top 2 in this national competition, but the deadline to vote is Saturday 31st August 2024.

The Seaside Heritage Network perfectly captures what makes this iconic attraction so special:

“Paddling pools have always been a hit with young seaside adventurers, but Ventnor’s is truly one of a kind.

“Since the 1940s, this ankle-deep pool, nestled close to the beach, has been a beloved spot for both visitors and locals. Its standout feature? A charming island, shaped just like the Isle of Wight, complete with roads and rolling hills.

“From the cliffside above, you can see this miniature Isle is perfectly aligned with the real one. Could this be the tiniest island on the UK’s largest Island?”
