Up for some exciting activities? Lulworth Cove is the ideal place for all your watersports. Many visitors come here to enjoy kayaking, paddleboarding and snorkelling.
Do you enjoy walking accompanied by panoramic views? Head on up the hill beyond the car park and head towards the nearby beaches of Man O’ War and Durdle Door, both located just over the hill next to Lulworth Cove. We recommend taking some walking boots for this trek as the ground can be uneven with areas of steep incline and decline. We must stay, the views as you incline are stunning and well worth the hike!
Parking and facilities
Lulworth Cove has a main car park near the top of town (sat nav BH20 5RQ), with around a 5-10 minute walk from the beach. Parking charges apply 24/7, where you can choose from half-day (4 hours) or full-day parking. Your ticket also grants access to the neighbouring Durdle Door car park, meaning you can visit both attractions in one day. Toilets are located next to the visitor centre and you’ll find cafes, ice cream shops, restaurants and coffee shops to explore after enjoying this picturesque gem.
