Mupe, Dorset

Ref: AB015412
Gallery: Dorset

Mupe is a fantastic location to visit, full of jagged rocks, rockpools and sea stacks. As in other parts of the Dorset coast, the geology here is fascinating.  On top of these things, the best thing about Mupe is it’s seclusion. You have to walk for a bit to get here, meaning you rarely find anyone else on the beach. This is perfect for completing the atmosphere of this remarkable place.  This image was taken just as the sun was about to disappear at the end of the day, its glow just about catching the side of the rock in the foreground and the stacks on the horizon. I had to balance on the crest of the pointed rocks to get this one, the ever incoming tide creeping up around my boots. But it was worth it.
