At the heart of the Jurassic Coast is this crescent of long beach beside deep blue waters and spotted with lagoons. Along the way it passes picturesque Portland Harbour, Hamm Beach and a host of heritage wildlife you won't want to miss. With over 18 miles to explore, and Dorset begging to be explored, your staycation wouldn't be the same without these superb campsites near Chesil Beach.
