Coming to an open day provides the perfect opportunity to have a look around the city and get a feel for what Plymouth has to offer.
The day before
Arriving the day before an open day provides the perfect opportunity to explore our ocean city ahead of your event.
Take a walk
Head out for a walk along the waterfront and take in the sea views from Plymouth Hoe – every student’s go-to place when the sun is shining. Just down the road, you can stroll through the cobbled streets of Plymouth’s old town, the Barbican.

Grab a bite to eat
Staying close to campus will place you in the heart of the city with many restaurants, bars and takeaways accessible within a 10-minute walk. For a vibrant, casual dining experience we recommend Manuka Bar & Eatery just across the street on North Hill, a great place to immerse yourself in the student scene. Further into town is the Barcode, which is home to chain restaurants we all know and love including Las Iguanas, Nandos and Five Guys. You could even watch a movie at Cineworld or try activities like karaoke and augmented reality axe throwing at Boom Battle Bar.
