West Bay

West Bay sits at the mouth of Bridport Harbour on the Jurassic Coast, tucked between dramatic golden cliffs that make it one of Dorset's most striking anchorages. You'll drop anchor off a compact harbour town with a real fishing village feel — pubs, seafood shacks, and the kind of place that gets busy in summer for good reason. The towering cliff faces of East Cliff and West Cliff frame the whole scene, and the coastal path from here connects you straight into some of the finest walking on the south coast.
