Bournemouth Beach & Pier
Bournemouth Beach stretches for miles from the Pier past Boscombe and into Poole, offering easy access from the Cliff Top via zig-zag paths or Victorian cliff lifts. Thanks to its micro-climate and warm sea temperatures, it’s ideal for families and seaside relaxation. Located in the heart of ten miles of golden sand, Bournemouth Pier offers stunning views—from the Isle of Wight to the Purbeck Hills—alongside a variety of attractions, entertainment, and shops..
Lulworth Cove
Shaped by the sea and glacial meltwater, Lulworth Cove is world-renowned for its unique geology, including the Lulworth Crumple and Stair Hole—said to have inspired Enid Blyton’s The Rubadub Mystery. This stretch of the UNESCO World Heritage Coast features blow holes, caves, arches, and coves. Open year-round, it’s perfect for walking, watersports, coasteering, or simply relaxing by the clear waters with an ice cream.
Durdle Door
Durdle Door is one of Dorset’s most iconic landmarks, featuring a natural limestone arch formed by centuries of wave erosion. Part of the Jurassic Coast UNESCO World Heritage Site, it sits on the Lulworth Estate and draws visitors from around the world. The name comes from the Old English word ‘thirl’, meaning to pierce or drill. Access to the shingle beach is via a steep path and steps from Lulworth Cove. Caves at the base of the cliffs are visible but unsafe to enter due to frequent rockfalls.
Old Harry's Rock
Perched on Handfast Point at Studland Bay, Old Harry is one of the South Coast’s most iconic landmarks. Part of the Jurassic Coast UNESCO World Heritage Site and managed by the National Trust, the name refers to the furthest chalk stack out to sea. His companion, "Old Harry’s Wife," collapsed into the sea in 1896. Once connected to the Isle of Wight’s Needles by chalk hills, this dramatic landscape was shaped by erosion over thousands of years. The name "Old Harry" may refer to a local pirate or even the devil—nearby cliffs are called Old Nick’s Ground.
Brownsea Island
Brownsea Island is dramatically located in Poole Harbour, with spectacular views across to the Purbeck Hills. Thriving habitats including woodland, heathland and a lagoon create a unique haven for wildlife, such as the rare red squirrel and a wide variety of birds, including dunlin, kingfishers, common and Sandwich terns and oystercatchers.
Chesil Beach
Chesil Beach is an 18-mile stretch of wild shingle running from West Bay to Portland, and one of Dorset’s most dramatic natural features. Unlike Weymouth’s sandy shores, Chesil is shaped by the elements—rugged and raw. The size of its pebbles changes along its length, once helping smugglers pinpoint their location by feel alone. Author John Fowles called it “an elemental place, made of sea, shingle and sky.”
