    A Beach Camp, Jurassic Coast, Dorset | Dutch Army Hooped Bivvi Camp

    Early July 2024

    The plan was to sleep on the highest point between the sea and the lagoon but the cold wind coming off of the sea along with the sea spray put an end to it.

    7th July 2023

    An awesome solo bivi camp on a dull and windy night. I’ve walked this section of the SW Coastal path many times and I’ve always wanted to camp here.

    On a spur of the moment thing, I took the opportunity on an overcast Friday evening.

    Views east, west and south didn’t get boring or disappoint. This place was lovely…
