Camping on the Jurassic Coast in Dorset

Some of the most popular beaches in Dorset include Durdle Door, Charmouth Beach, Lyme Regis Beach, Weymouth Beach, Swanage Beach and West Bay Beach. 

Durdle Door

Sitting pretty on the Jurassic Coast, nestled near Lulworth, is Durdle Door. No coastal camping holiday in Dorset is complete without a visit to this delightful stretch of coastline. A 20-minute drive from our Moreton Club Site, and accessible on foot via a steep path and steps from the hill at Lulworth Cove, this shingle covered shoreline is a beauty of a beach. It welcomes dogs too!

Charmouth Beach

The charming Charmouth Beach is a seductive sanctuary, a blend of sand and shingle split in half by the mouth of the stunning River Char. Just 10-minutes away from our Charmouth Club Site, it’s one of the closest shorelines to our caravan parks on the Dorset Coast. Boasting eye-catching and inspiring views, the eastern part of the beach is a hotspot for families who enjoy basking in lovely deep sands.

Lyme Regis Beach

Equally, the pebbly beaches around Lyme Regis are great for fossil fanatics, with ammonites and tiny remains of sea creatures scattered among the sand and shingle. For more fascinating fossil finds, head to Cobb Beach or Church Beach at Lyme Regis, where you can hunt for prehistoric remnants along the foreshore.

Weymouth Beach

With beautiful golden sand and a magnificent Georgian seafront, it’s no wonder Weymouth Beach is award-winning. Enjoy a relaxing day sunbathing on the beach or take a pleasant stroll down Weymouth’s beautiful harbour. Just a 2 minute walk from Weymouth Beach is Weymouth Pavilion, the premier venue for live theatre, music, arts, events and more.

Swanage Beach

Swanage is an authentic Victorian seaside, home to clear blue waters and a long stretch of golden sand. It is one of the main attractions of Swanage town. There are plenty of exciting attractions to visit in Swanage, including Swanage Railway and Durlston Country Park.

West Bay Beach

The wondrous West Bay Beach at Bridpost Harbour is a magnificent, must see location, which is characterised by its spectacular sandstone cliffs, towering over sweeping sands.

Lulworth Cove

Nearby Lulworth Cove, a 30-minute walk away along the South West Coast Path, is another amazing place of natural beauty nestled on Dorset’s Jurassic Coast. Characterised by a striking, shell-shaped bay carved out of the coastline, Lulworth Cove’s beautiful narrow band of shingle is surrounded by splendid scenery.

Studland Beach

Enjoy a 4-mile stretch of beautiful golden sand with sheltered waters perfect for swimming in at Studland Beach. This beach is dog-friendly, allowing your pooch to come all year round. Take in the stunning views of Old Harry Rocks, one of the most famous landmarks on the South Coast and well loved by visitors and locals alike.
