Top landmarks in Dorchester

This is on Man of war beach near Durdle door on the Jurassic Coast in UK. Outstanding place with lots of natural beauty and spots for hikes and photography. If you go there wear comfy shoes and be ready for steep (but short) climbs. Enjoy!

West Bexington Beach

West Bexington Beach offers pristine shingle shores and tranquil fishing spots along the dramatic Jurassic Coast. Bring sturdy shoes—the steep pebble bank creates amazing wave sounds but amenities are limited.
