Thereof, how was sandbanks spit formed?
Sandbanks peninsula is literally nothing but sand. The sand was washed by the tides from cliff erosion further along the coast of Poole Bay. It eventually formed a spit of sand dunes partially obstructing the mouth of Poole Harbour, claimed to be the largest natural harbour in the world except for Sydney Harbour.

Regarding this, when was sandbanks built?
In the 1920s and 1930s the Sandbanks sand spit was developed as a holiday resort. The Pavilion, the building at the main entrance to the sand beach, was built 1928. In summer the soft sandy beach became crowded, as it is in summer now.
Why is sandbanks so expensive?
"The thing about Sandbanks is that it is a peninsula and so we are hemmed in. You can't increase the number of properties and so supply and demand dictate the prices." A little history helps increase the price too. A Panorama Road property on a plot of land once owned by John Lennon has just listed for £7.2m.
