Shell Bay Beach
This remote sandy beach at the entrance to Poole Harbour offers one of Dorset's most unspoiled coastal experiences, accessible only by the picturesque chain ferry from Sandbanks or via a lengthy walk from Studland village. The beach's isolation ensures it remains relatively quiet even in summer, making it perfect for those seeking peace and natural beauty. With views across to Bournemouth's golden beaches and the dramatic chalk cliffs of the Isle of Wight, Shell Bay provides an ideal spot for contemplating the diverse geology and geography of this remarkable stretch of coastline.
