West Bay's dramatic coastline

Just down the road from Bridport, in Dorset, the little 'resort' of West Bay boasts an attractive inner harbour,
two new piers, a pebble beach and some great cliff-top walks to the east and west. It's probably our nearest
point to the sea, being around a 40 minute drive away, and so a favourite port of call on our days off.

Chris, these are really beautiful photos of this area. Visited here recently but on an overcast and misty morning. SO your photos provide a more beautiful and colourful version! Really well done. V

Well done Chris an EXCELLENT gallery, really first class photography. I have walked this area and you make me want to visit there again. Will I ever finish the coastal path, maybe I will have to do it twice.

I like your photos, have been to west bay many times, not quite made my mind up if the new jetty area has spoilt the look of the place.
