Bournemouth Surf & Sip Package

Take on a lesson and become a true surfer babe with this amazing beach based activity, a strong contrast to other drink-focused activities (which might still fill your evening). This is a 2 hour surfing lesson, ideal for all levels from beginners to experts.

Taking place at Boscombe beach, while your wetsuit and surfboard will be provided for each of you. You will need to pack some swimwear, a towel and a change of clothes for afterwards, plus it's worth bringing some sunscreen in case it's a very hot day.

They have facilities available, so you can use the changing rooms to switch from your normal clothing, as well as using their hot showers afterwards, plus they have lockers to keep your valuables in while taking your surfing lesson.

You'll start on-land, learning the basics of stability and getting your head around balancing on the board, before taking to the water.

Before the drinks start flowing, it's good to have a meal arranged and Slug & Lettuce is a great central option. With both indoor and outdoor seating available, which is ideal if the weather is working in your favour. The hardest choice will be picking between a starter & main, or a main & dessert, as this has to be consistent with the whole group.

Your dishes will be pre-ordered in the build-up to your hen weekend, to ensure the right quantities are available. We will need your pre-order at least 2 weeks before the big weekend. The benefit to having your meal pre-paid means that you don't have to debate over where to eat, you don't have to argue over a bill at the end with 'who pays what' and you don't have to worry about the cost as it's all covered in advance.

Your table will be reserved for a two hour period, plenty of time to eat your food, but you may want to stay on afterwards as the venue gets more lively into the evening. While the menu changes over time, you can expect the likes of burgers, small plates, curries, wraps, salads and desserts (depending on what is on the set menu), while there are vegetarian and vegan options ava

You'll be in central Bournemouth, so if you want to head on to another bar or nightclub afterwards, you don't have a long walk.

This 90 minute cocktail masterclass at Slug & Lettuce allows for your group to decide which drinks you'd want to make, with options like espresso martini, strawberry sprinkle, mojito, beach babes, hot honey margarita or a cosmo, but these are subject to change, therefore feel free to check in the build-up. 

You'll be given a pornstar martini each on arrival, just to get everyone in the mood to make some drinks and have a laugh, while at the end you'll all be given a signature S&L shot.

Unlike Barbara's Bier Haus, the cocktail making at Slug & Lettuce is available 7 days a week, so if you're looking to book a midweek day or want to carry the party on into Sunday then this option still works. Available on Saturdays at 12pm, 2pm, 4pm or 6pm, or any other day has the same time slots but with 8pm added.

There may be the occasional party game during your session, run by the S&L trained mixologists, keeping everyone laughing and smiling. In total, you'll have 2 cocktails each, plus the welcome pornstar martini and shot at the end.

If there are any non-drinkers in the group, that's not a worry as there is a non-alcoholic version of the masterclass so that they can make or have a mocktail. If you let us know in advance, they can have a fruity pornstar martini on arrival rather than the alcoholic one.
