Vast area of sandy beaches and heath land and hot studs!
Studland beach is internationally renound for it's nudist beach. Part of the beach is unofficially a gay and/or nudist beach. Look out for the rainbow flags! Fine beaches stretch continuously for 3 miles from South Haven Point to the chalk cliffs of Handfast Point and Old Harry Rocks, and include Shell Bay and a designated naturist area. The heathland behind the beach is a National Nature Reserve, a haven for many rare birds and other forms of wildlife. There are several footpaths, two nature trails and bird hides at Little Sea.
How To Get There From Studland there is an easy walk to Old Harry Rocks, or you can get the ferry to Sandbanks and go to Poole.
It was made (even more) famous in 2003 by a documentary about the National Trust and how it manages the nudist section of the beach.
The gay and nudist section are virtually the same. On a sunny summers day you will know when you are in the gay section - rainbow flags everywhere! |
