Overview

Bridport Beach Front, also known as West Bay Beach, is a striking stretch of coarse sand and shingle on the Jurassic Coast in Dorset. Backed by dramatic golden cliffs, it’s a popular spot for fossil hunting, coastal walks, and enjoying the geological beauty of the area.

The beach is dog-friendly, has parking nearby, and offers access to local cafés and restaurants. While some areas have been affected by landslides, they’ve also revealed new fossil layers, adding to the beach’s unique charm
