Overview
3About West Bay
West Bay perches on Dorset's Jurassic Coast where golden cliffs meet a working harbour made famous by Broadchurch. Reach it via the A35 to the B3157, or take the scenic coastal B3157 from Weymouth. The distinctive red-brick harbour walls and towering East Cliff create one of England's most dramatic coastal settings, with those iconic sandstone cliffs rising 150 feet straight from the shingle beach.
