The UK has an impressive coastline, and some of our beaches rival those of the tropical Caribbean coast, with white sand and crystal clear water. Even in the warmer months, there's nothing better than a beach trip. Also, there are plenty of cute towns with lots of beaches of some of the UK's favorite beaches, but One Beach has been chosen as one of the best in the world.
Cornwall and Devon are home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the UK, but this beach is further along the adjacent Dorset coast. The beaches that have been named one of the best beaches in the world by National Geographic and that you should visit for a lifetime, report a timeout. Durdledoor in Dorset is known for its unique coastline, in addition to being selected as one of the best beaches in the world.
Located along the 96-mile-long Jurassic Coast, Durdle Door attracts around half a million visitors a year thanks to its beach-based natural rock arches.
The name Dardle comes from the old English word wordthir and means piercing, boa, drill and was used to describe arches. With so many people who look like dragons drinking seawater, geologists believe that for millions of years the waves hit the cliffs and eventually erode the limestone, arches formed.
Estimated to be 140 million years ago, the famous rocks on the beach have also appeared in several music videos for famous musicians, including Billy Ocean and Tears for Tears, and are also featured in Nanny McPhee.
Speaking of beaches, National Geographic said: “Dorset's magnificent Jurassic Coast – along the UNESCO World Heritage Site along the southeast coast of England – this beach and its nameless limestone arch are absolute showstoppers.”
If you are planning a trip, it is recommended that beach trips be sudden and unstable to navigate from time to time, and there is no lifeguard for work.
A TripAdvisor user said, “The view is amazing, but be prepared for a walk. Put on comfortable shoes and probably drink some water.”
The parking is a 15-minute walk from the beach, but to reach the beach you will need to walk more than 100 steps from the top of the cliff. It is worth noting that beach access is not permitted after 9pm.
If it is not possible to go to the beach, then in timeout you simply walk along the coastal path to Luleworth Cove, taking in the view from above.
