Lulworth Cove is a cove near the village of West Lulworth, on the Jurassic Coast in Dorset, southern England. It is one of the world's finest examples of a concordant coastline, where the bands of rock run parallel to the shore. It is a World Heritage Site and a popular tourist destination with approximately 500,000 visitors every year. It is close to other geological attractions, such as Durdle Door, a natural arch, and a fossilised forest. Lulworth Cove was formed by the erosion of the softer rocks behind the limestone, creating a circular shape with a narrow entrance..

Part of the Jurassic Coast UNESCO World Heritage Site, Lulworth Cove is a picture book place that couldn't have a more perfect curve to it if it were hand-cut. Dotted with anchored boats and ringed with chalk cliffs, it's well known for its turquoise water.

You might not want to cycle back up the hill again if you're just after a quick glimpse, so instead, you can lock your bike at the top and walk down.
