Beautiful, even if it’s rainy or foggy. You have to walk down a steep unfortified path from the carpark which is situated behind a trailer park, you have to drive trough this. Another acces is from Lulworth Cove, a 45 min. walk.

Beautiful, absolutely beautiful! I cannot recommend enough the walk from Lulworth over to Durdle Door and beyond. The scenery is breathtaking, the air is clean and even though it was a glorious day that I came here, I am certain that being here on a rainy, moody, miserable day would still put a smile on my face. There is quite a steep climb down to the beach but by doing this you block out the wind and you find yourself in this echoey secluded spot looking right at the ‘Door’, what a sight. There is usually a refreshments/ice cream trailer around here too, so if you are concerned about the steep climb up from Lulworth, rest assured you’ll be rewarded with a 99 cone with a flake when you get there!

This place is refreshingly and beautifully unchanging! I’ve been visiting Durdle Door for the best part of 25 years, and every time I come back its stunning natural beauty astounds me. From the magnificent cliffs to awe-inspiring geology, there is plenty to look at or simply admire. And, an added bonus, on account of its challenging access(steep cliff paths and uneven steps) the type of people most likely to cause nuisance are generally always absent!

Durdle Door is well worth a visit, sat on the Jurrasic coastline with the sun above it, just gorgeous. It was very windy on the day we went and had there been a suitable handrail down the steep steps to the beach, I would have ventured down with my little one. My son and partner were much braver than me and did it, they walked along the lovely beach and got some fab pics. The walk back upto the carpark is not for the unfit!

It is totally stunning here, particularly in late evening. The beach has a sharp drop down to the sea so you need to be very careful, but it’s beautiful. The walk down from the car park to the beach isn’t for everyone because it’s very steep, but if you can make it, then it’s worth every step. I can’t guarantee you’ll be able to speak by the time you get back up to the top, but give it a try.

Bei meinen Sprachferien in Bournemouth 1984 haben wir auch diese Sehenswürdigkeit besucht und es ist eine vielbesuchtes Ziel. Baden sind wir auch in der Nähe gewesen und das war wirklich nicht gerade warm, aber ich plantschte damals doch fleissig im Wasser herum, denn Bewegung ist das beste Mittel gegen das kalte Wasser. :-)

Sehr beliebtes Ausflugsziel, aber der Besuch lohnt sich. Vom großen Parkplatz in Lulworth geht es eine knappe halbe stunde über die Hügel bis zur Bucht von Durdle Door. Highlight ist natürlich der Felsenbogen. Im Sommer sind hier aber auch schöné Badestrände, der Abstieg über die Klippen lohnt sich. Ob man dann in den eisigen Ärmelkanal steigt ist dann noch eine andere Frage, die Engländer haben nicht selten Neoprenanzüge zum Schwimmen an, was man als Tourist eher nicht dabei hat.
