Old Harry Rocks, Dorset, Jurassic Coast

Old Harry Rocks
The Old Harry Rocks in Dorset.


Old Harry Rocks are located at Handfast Point on the Isle of Purbeck(not an actual isle, but a peninsula) in Dorset and mark the eastern end of the Jurassic Coast. The Rocks are stack formations of chalk rock carved by the sea.

Boating and canoeing around the rocks is a popular activity. Good views of the Old Harry Rocks can also be seen from the Dorset section of the South West Coastal Path.
