St. Catherine's Chapel in Abbotsbury is an enchanting place steeped in history and atmosphere. Perched on a hill, the small chapel offers breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside and the sea. Its tranquil and spiritual atmosphere makes it a perfect place for a contemplative stroll or a short break from everyday life. Its historical significance and picturesque location make St. Catherine's Chapel a must-see for visitors who want to discover the beauty and history of the region.

A picturesque trek, with relatively easy paths and very enjoyable.

As far as I am aware, the West Bay coastal path is closed due to many landslip and the path disappearing into the bay.

End of the Esplanade past the rocks on the beach is great at sunset

Apart from a memorial stone seat near the summit of the hill there is nowhere to sit down if you’re in need of a rest! Sure, you could sit on the grass but not when it’s damp …

Car park at the beach is relatively cheap. toilets are 24 hours open and clean. The shingle beach is...well, a nightmare for miles upon miles of relentless trudging.

Finally came back in daylight hours and got to venture inside the Chapel. Awesome!!!

An extensive oasis of relative calm compared with the open sea across Chesil Beach, the Fleet Lagoon is a vital shelter and feeding area for wildlife. This long, shallow stretch of water is England’s largest lagoon at around 480 hectares. Home to the famous Abbotsbury Swannery and large numbers of over-wintering Brent geese, the Lagoon draws wildlife watchers to its shores. Visitors can also see other resident and migrant birds like little terns, wigeon, pochard, coots, even an occasional passing osprey. In addition to its birds, the Fleet Lagoon Marine Protected Area also protects numerous plants and animals. Several marine plants like seagrasses, stoneworts and salt marsh, and animals like lagoon sandworms, lagoon sand shrimps and the rare DeFolin’s lagoon snail all benefit from the Fleet’s status as an MPA. The Fleet Lagoon is also an important nursery area for several types of fish like bass, black bream, sand smelt, mullets and gobies. Commercial fishing does occur in the Fleet although it is tightly controlled and limited in its extent. Toward the seaward end, oysters are also farmed commercially.
