Durley Chine Beach

Durley Chine is west of Bournemouth’s central beach and considered by many to be its finest. Golden sand, clean water and easy access to all facilities make this beach a popular choice for families. Reached via a sloping car park or a gentle walk through Middle Chine, a narrow, wooded gorge leading down to the sea from West Overcliff Drive. Dogs are allowed on parts of the beach throughout the year.
