Default Where can I watch the cricket and keep the family occupied?

It’s the cricket World Cup final on Sunday, England v New Zealand.

I can’t pick up UK tv in the villa were staying in, and even TMS is blocked on iPlayer.

Where can I go to watch the game that will also keep the family occupied (wife and two boys, six and two)?

I can’t sit in a pub all day, does anyone have any great ideas?

Thanks in advance

I understand it will be broadcast on Ch 4

You could try Transponder | Your Shows, Wherever You Want and watch it live on your laptop, iPad or mobile phone.

It will be tennis for me, I am afraid, also available on the same app.

Thanks everyone, I’m sure a lot of places will be showing it but I’m not going to be allowed if the family has to just sit there and watch me.

Is there a “nice” beach bar/pool bar or similar that will let me pretend to be interested in what they’re doing while they’re splashing around so that I can watch the cricket?

I already know how bad this makes me look, but we don’t reach a World Cup final every day!!!

Laguna fits this bill though I don't know if they will be showing cricket although a FB message or email would confirm.

Pascalino’s on the front have a big tv. When we (not me!) we’re looking for a football match then they found the channel and put it on for the boys. As usual Newcastle let a goal in in the last few minutes and they lost
