Region: Explore the fossils and stunning beaches of Dorset’s Jurassic Coast, visit historic Sherborne and Shaftesbury, or enjoy the footpaths, country lanes and thatched-roof pubs Dorset offers.
Town: The modest, family-friendly coastal village of Swanage is situated at the eastern end of Dorset’s famous Jurassic Coast, on the celebrated Isle of Purbeck and is arguably best known for its magnificent, gently sloping golden dunes. The modest town offers visitors plenty of stores, fine taverns and restaurants, some of which specialized in locally caught seafood, and is particularly widely renowned for its annual jazz festival, which takes place each July. The lovely, Victorian wooden pier gives a terrific area for a promenade or try fishing, and commonly utilized a launching point for divers, it’s a wonderful site to watch the world pass by. The ancient Swanage Railway has its terminal in the town and frequent nostalgic steam engine journeys take tourists for a magnificent 6-mile journey, chugging through lovely countryside to stop just beyond the romantic ruin of Corfe Castle. Nearby Durlston Country Park offers a fantastic day out with excellent coastline walks, dolphin spotting and animal watching, coupled with comfortable observation places and a well-stocked cafe for a treat after all the fresh air. Take the short trip to Studland, which features one of the finest beaches in the country, surrounded by heathland, coupled with the frequent chain ferry, which crosses the mouth of Poole Harbour to Sandbanks. This certainly is a beautiful holiday spot at any time of the year.
