One of the first things you will see when you are standing in Swanage Bay is its Pier. This Victorian structure lies on the southern side of the Bay. Initially built for commercial purposes mainly linked to the local stone quarrying industry, it is now open to the public and has a gift shop, café and museum displaying the marine life that can be found in the surrounding area.

Another place in the area that is definitely worth a visit is the stunning village of Worth Matravers, a mere 15 minute drive west of Swanage, here you will be able to stroll through its lovely quiet streets and enjoy a pint in the garden of its famous pub The Square and Compass. After this you can walk down and spend the afternoon on Winspit Beach, a stunning rocky beach full of rockpools that children can sit and splash in, and, if you're feeling brave you can go for a swim in the cold English Channel. There is also a disused quarry which means there are empty caves in the rock face you can visit but be careful as it is uncertain how safe these caves actually are.
