Best beach in UK - miles of golden sands, and shallow make this a safe beach for families. Great views across to Old Harry point, Isle of Wight and Bournemouth. More

My girlfriend & I had a few hours stroll along the beach and the sand dunes behind. Very pleasant and very child friendly (apart from the nudist beach but this is well sign posted). Lots of refreshments & cafes at points along the beach along with kayak hires. Bring change as pay & display parking More

Have been visiting studland since 1981 and it never... More
