If your considering going for the first time to Durdle door, just go.. don’t think twice.
Durdle Door (sometimes written Durdle Dor) is a natural limestone arch on the Jurassic Coast near Lulworth in Dorset, England.
It is owned by the Welds, a family who own 12,000 acres (50 km2) in Dorset in the name of the Lulworth Estate.
It is open to the public.
There are no rubbish bins on the beach, therefore all visitors should take their rubbish home with them.
Durdle Door is one of Dorset’s most photographed and iconic landmarks. It is part of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site and is an extremely popular beauty spot.
Access to the pebble and shingle beach is on foot via a path and steps over the hill from Lulworth Cove or down from the Car Park (charges apply) which is located on the cliff top at Durdle Door Holiday Park.
There is a half mile walk (approx 30 minutes) along a steep path downhill, plus a further 143 steps down onto the beach.
There is only one set of steps to access the beach, therefore you may have to queue to ensure social distancing of 2 metres.
There are no toilets or any other facilities on the beach. Toilets are located within the car park area (approx 30 minutes walk uphill from the beach).
At the base of the chalk cliffs a number of caves can be seen which have been carved out by the sea. Please do not enter them as cliff falls are common.
Bathing is possible in places, however the beach shelves steeply in places, therefore please supervise your children at all times as there is no lifeguard.
Dogs are allowed on the beach all year, however please be sure to pick up after them.
Barbecues and fires are not permitted at any of the beaches or grassland areas on the Lulworth Estate.
Overnight camping is not permitted on beaches, clifftops or elsewhere (apart from pre-booked camping at the Durdle Door Holiday Park).
