West Bay
A filming location from Broadchurch in Dorset.

The scene
The sheer golden cliff of East Beach looms over the harbour town and behind nearly every scene of the murder investigation.

How to visit
The harbour, beach and cliff path are free and open year-round; the cliffs are unstable, so keep well back from the edge and the base. West Bay is a short drive from Bridport on the Jurassic Coast.
