Places for evening meals
No visit to Swanage is complete without a trip to Gee Whites for drinks or food - while catching the last of the evening sun. It's a seafood restaurant but there are plenty of vegetarian options. Better still, go upstairs to the Top Deck - lovely views of the bay. (Open April to Oct)
