Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Burning Cliff II (Dorset) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Burning Cliff II (Dorset) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Burning Cliff II for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

The bay and beach are incredibly beautiful. I parked my car in the national trust car park and walked down the track, passing by the farm. The walk back up was a bit steep, but it was a great workout. There are restrooms by the shop and a station to fill up water bottles. I believe there is a combined fee for toll and parking. Since I visited early in the morning, there weren't many people around.

The beach is peaceful and covered with pebbles and shingles. The road leading to the car park is narrow and has designated spots for pulling over. There are toilets available, as well as a shop and cafe. Additionally, there is a water bottle refilling station. It's just a short walk from the car park to the beach, and dogs are welcome too.

The beach allows dogs throughout the year and is considered the second best beach after National Trust, Studland Bay. Although parking near the beach costs £6, there is a cafe and restroom facilities available on site.

The coastal path is absolutely amazing. There is an abundance of wildlife to observe, and the views overlooking the sea are simply breathtaking. Although the walk can be a bit challenging in certain areas, having a reliable pair of walking boots will greatly help. Don't forget to bring a camera along as it is essential for capturing the beauty of this walk. Enjoy!

The beach is absolutely stunning. It offers delightful walks in both directions, with a breathtaking landscape surrounding it. The beach is well-maintained and kept clean. The cafe, although it is only open at certain times, is lovely. As for parking, it costs £5 for the entire day during the summer season and £3 during the winter months. We frequently visit this beach on weekends for our walks, as it has become our favorite spot. The water is crystal clear and incredibly beautiful.
