点评:we have been coming to Sandbanks beach along by the Haven Hotel for years now, we normally drive down 4 or 5 times during the summer and spend a whole day on the beach, more recently we have stayed over night in Poole and Bournemouth and spent the whole weekend on the beach, these beaches are gorgeous, when the sun is shining you really could be anywhere in the world, we have lived in Australia and travelled extensively to east asia and the Caribbean and spent weeks and months on some of the most beautiful beaches, Sandbanks really does stand upwell against these places, my only gripe is the amount of dogs that also use the beaches especially the coves as you get up close to the Haven Hotel, most of the dogs are well behaved and their owners respect other members of the publics right to sit on the beach in peace and quiet without having dogs sniffing around them, unfortunately there are a few that do not seem to care, they let their dogs off the leads and walk behind them, often 10 - 20 meters behind them and just watch them wander up the beaches, walking across families towels and beach ware, sniffing in their bags and just generally being a nuisance, its not until you start pushing the dog off your towel and away from your cool bag full of food that the owner half heartedly recalls the dog, by then the damage has already been done, I watched one owner sitting on the rocks at the end by the Haven hotel launching a ball for his dog to chase along the shoreline, about 30 - 40 meters, the dog was tearing along the shore line, flat out, chasing the ball and there was at least 5 - 10 people standing on the shoreline looking out to sea chatting with this dog tearing around in between them, it came very close to knocking a few people over, this went on for about 15 minutes! potentially dangerous, there are young children and elderly people using the beach, in and out of the sea, this type of thing is a regular occurrence, yes I know its a dog beach, but its also a humans beach who's safety and wellbeing must also be considered, its a real shame because most of the dog owners are respectful and keep their dogs under control, the few need to realise that not everyone their dog walks past thinks its a lovely ball of fur and wants to spend time stroking it or welcoming it onto their towels and picnic area, I have watched dog owners follow their dogs and allow them to just wander all over other beach users towels, blankets and picnic areas without so much as a care in the world, I don't blame the dog, I blame the owner, there does seem to be a degree of entitlement with some of them, I have seen 1 or 2 of the worst offenders walk into back gardens that back onto the beach the dogs are running around on so clearly they live there. for us the coves are the best part of Sandbanks beaches, its a shame they are being overrun with dogs more so now than a few years ago
翻译:多年来,我们一直会去Haven Hotel附近的桑德班克斯海滩。夏天时,我们通常会开车去4到5次,每次都在海滩上呆上一整天。最近,我们还在普尔和伯恩茅斯过夜,整个周末都泡在沙滩上。这些海滩真是美不胜收,阳光照耀之下,你会觉得自己仿佛身处世界上的任何一处美景之地。我们曾在澳大利亚居住,也频繁前往东亚和加勒比地区旅行,还在一些最美丽的海滩上度过了数周乃至数月的时光。相比之下,桑德班克斯的海滩丝毫不逊色于那些地方。我唯一不满意的是有太多狗也出现在海滩上,尤其是靠近海文酒店的那些小海湾里。大多数狗狗都表现良好,它们的主人也尊重其他游客安静享受海滩的权利,不会让狗狗在他们周围嗅来嗅去。可惜的是,仍有少数主人毫不在意:他们解开狗绳,跟在狗狗后面10到20米远的地方,任由狗狗在海滩上乱跑,踩坏其他家庭的沙滩巾和用品,还去翻找他们的行李,着实惹人烦。直到你开始把狗从毛巾上赶走,让它远离装满食物的冰袋时,狗主人才漫不经心地把狗叫回来。但那时,一切都已经无法挽回了。我曾看到一位主人坐在Haven酒店旁的岩石上,向海边抛出一个球让他的狗去追赶;距离大约有30到40米,那只狗拼了命地沿着海岸线狂奔。那只狗在追球,当时至少有5到10个人站在岸边望向大海,一边聊天,而那只狗则在他们中间欢快地奔跑。它差点把几个人撞倒,这种情况持续了大约15分钟!其实挺危险的,因为有很多小孩和老人在海滩上活动,时不时还会进入海中。这类事情经常发生。我知道这里是狗狗海滩,但这里同样也是人类的海滩,人类的安全与福祉同样需要得到保障。真是可惜,因为大多数狗主人都很有教养,也能很好地管教自己的狗狗。只是有那么少数人需要意识到:并不是每个被狗狗靠近的人都会觉得它是个可爱的毛球,也并不都希望去抚摸它,或者允许它钻进自己的毯子下、进入自己的野餐区。我曾见过一些狗主人任由自己的狗狗随意跑动,甚至跑到其他游客的毯子、野餐垫上,而他们却毫不在意。我不怪狗狗,我只怪它的主人。确实,他们当中有些人表现得很有“特权意识”。我见过一两个最过分的人径直走进那些紧邻海滩的后院——那里的狗正在四处奔跑,显然他们就住在那儿。对我们来说,那些小海湾才是桑德班克斯海滩最棒的部分,可惜现在这些地方被狗群占领得比几年前更严重了。
