    Hiking

    Kimmeridge Bay is small and pretty, facing south west to Portland. A site of conservation, the bay is an exceptional spot for snorkelling as well as investigating rock pools. The bay also offers good views over to Clavell Tower, a folly on the headland. Hike up to it for sweeping scenes across the bay.
