At Lulworth Cove, you'll experience the stunning beauty of one of the Jurassic Coast's most iconic natural features.

Explore the pebble beach and the scenic trails leading to breathtaking views of the English Channel.
At Durdle Door, you'll marvel at one of the Jurassic Coast’s most iconic landmarks. This natural limestone arch, formed by millennia of water erosion, frames the blue waters of the English Channel.

About Weymouth
Weymouth is a Georgian seaside resort in Dorset, with a curving sandy bay, a working harbour and the Jurassic Coast on its doorstep.
George III holidayed at Weymouth from the 1780s, and the seafront still has Georgian terraces behind a wide esplanade, with a statue of the king and a Victorian jubilee clock. A broad sandy beach curves round Weymouth Bay, and the inner harbour, full of fishing boats and yachts, is lined with pubs and old warehouses. Nothe Fort, a Victorian fort on the headland, looks over the harbour mouth.
