Visit the stunning natural limestone arch on the Jurassic coast, formed over thousands of years, this famous landmark is one of the most photographed sites on the UK coastline! Enjoy the day on the beach and have plenty of time for relaxing, exploring and even fossil hunting. The coastline was declared England's fisrt natural world heritage site in 2001 and is still a very popular beauty spot so is not to be missed.
Not to mention, the you can also walk to the beautiful Lulworth cove, which is only 25 minutes on foot across the coastal path with breathtaking views. The cove has other famous landmarks such as Stair Hole and Lulworth Crumple and is situated less than a mile from West Lulworth village where you can find plenty of places to eat and get some souvenirs of the day.
The walk down to the Durdledoor beach is a steep decline with over 100 steps so make sure you wear appropriate footwear and be sure to enjoy the views.
