Highcliffe Beach
Christchurch, DorsetAbout Highcliffe Beach
Head over to Highcliffe beach, where you’ll find a gorgeous stretch of beach made up of a mixture of shingles and sand, and of course the bright blue ocean! With a lifeguarding service in the summer months, it’s the perfect place for the little ones to take a dip, and once they’ve returned to dry land, there’s loads of promenades and places to explore. You’ll have to work your way down a series of slopes and paths that lead to the beach, so it makes for the perfect game of who can ‘sea’ the sea first!
