Durdle Door is a huge, natural limestone arch on the spectacular Dorset coast.

Located on the Jurassic coastline between Swanage and Weymouth, the arch was formed when less resilient rock was eroded by the sea.

The beach is a narrow strand of mixed shingle, gravel and sand.

The eastern end, Durdle Door Cove, is protected by the arch, while the rest of the beach is partially sheltered by a submerged offshore reef.

From Lulworth Cove visitors can walk to Durdle Door following the path up Hambury Tout.

Safety advice - take care when walking close to cliff-top areas, especially at Durdle Door itself.
