Britain's Best Beaches

One of the Britain’s best beaches

Studland Bay - Dorset

Four miles of pristine white sand, which shelves gently into milky-blue waters, with a backdrop of dunes and heathland.

The northern stretch, most easily reached by chain ferry, has an away-from-it-all, desert-island feel, appreciated by the naturist sunbathers at Shell Bay; the southern Knoll Beach is popular with families.

Eat at the National Trust Beach Café, Knoll Beach, which serves hot and cold main meals and snacks.
