Mupe Bay Beach

Mupe Bay Beach is a stunning location on the south coast, known for its natural beauty and tranquility. It is located to the east of Lulworth Cove and is accessible via the South West Coast path. The beach is characterized by its shingle texture, which is common along most of the coastline in the area.

The beach is surrounded by classic Dorset chalk cliffs, and rocky outcroppings with rock pools can be found to the right. The bay offers lovely views out over the water, particularly during the climb on the South West Coast path.

One of the unique aspects of Mupe Bay Beach is its relative seclusion. It requires a moderate uphill walk of about a couple of miles or an hour's hike from Lulworth Cove. This lack of easy access means that the beach is often quiet, with only a handful of people present at any given time.
