Rainy Day Ideas
Being in the UK means there’s always the possibility of a rainy day, but luckily there’s so much to do under cover in Plymouth. So if you wake up and find that the sun is hiding, here’s some suggestions for how to spend a day – and stay dry!
Start your day with a visit to the National Marine Aquarium and take a journey through the world’s oceans – but with everything under cover, there’s no chance of you getting wet!
After a few hours exploring, grab your umbrellas for the short walk back to the Barbican to explore the indoor Mayflower Museum, telling the story of the Pilgrims journey to the New World in 1620. Warm up with lunch in a cosy café on the historic Barbican. Try Chocaccino for a delicious hot chocolate or Monty’s for locally sourced, seasonal food.
Get active in the afternoon. Choose whether you’d prefer ice-skating at Plymouth Pavilions Ice Rink, indoor climbing at Clip ‘n Climb or bouncing at Super Tramp, the city’s number 1 trampoline park. All indoor venues, they’re the perfect way to escape from the weather and try out a new activity.
Wind down with a relaxed dinner at one of the city centre restaurants like The Treasury, with its modern menu and well-stocked bar, or Turtle Bay which celebrates the lively, soulful and delicious experiences of the Caribbean.
