Thank you I'm stopping at puncknowle so only 40min trip .so hopefully will go either sun or Mon..Just had a look at google maps for the alternative view, if you take the route up west hill as above, carry on up the hill to the gate you can see - follow the path straight up from the end of the steps. at the Gate go right, this looks to be around the top of the hill in an anti clockwise direction. There might be a path straight up from the visitors centre but couldnt tell you where it starts and how steep, The west hill routs takes 5 minutes to get to the end of the step and maybe 5 more to the top.
If your going to Corfe you could go on from there to Swanage there is whats left of a pier there. Swanage is about 15 - 20 mins on from Corfe.Does anyone know if there is any groynes or jettys near weymouth
Cheers m8 west bay sounds goodEast Beach at West Bay near bridport as the harbour wall with a nice rock collection. from there to weymouth is chesil beach, none along there.
Weymouth has a harbour wall by the Nothe and a small rock groin near the skate park
None im aware of from there to Studland as the coast is all cliffs, natural beaches and rock pools at low water
Osmington has some nice rocks at low tide but they point to nothing spectacular and not out to sea but along the coast. Ringstead might have a slipway and few rocks.
Best rocks would be around the kimeridge bay area, i have pictures from a kid of a loverly plunging rock from Hobarrow bay round the corner from kimeridge but its completely out of bounds now due to the MOD not clearing it for access
Cheers m8 I'm off to corfe on Mon as weather looks promising..so I'll pop over to swanage thenIf your going to Corfe you could go on from there to Swanage there is whats left of a pier there. Swanage is about 15 - 20 mins on from Corfe.
Cheers m8 really appreciatedI shot Corfe from the West hill, the East hill & the main road looking west back in the summer.....
Turn right off of the main road just as you approach the Castle & there's loads of parking on the right. West hill is along the road & then up on your right hand side. West will shot into the sunrise, East hill you'll be shooting with the sun behind you. Either or. Or both!
Swanage was crap!! They were doing building/repair work on the main pier so couldn't get to the old pier & if you could you couldn't get a photo of it. This may have changed since August.....
