Practical
Position approximate (shore between Portland Harbour and Gun Bluff, GeoNames positions). The road out to the eastern point washed out in 2015: 4x4 only, or walk from the last driveway; easiest by dinghy from Crooked Island Marina in calm weather. Rougher surf than the west side. Some sections front private homes.
Best for
A walk or calm-day dinghy landing from the marina
