Studland In The News Again.

Studland Beach was in the press again today as 3 new ‘Community Wardens,’ highly visible in bright yellow t-shirts, have begun patrolling Studland’s beaches to make all visitors and local residents feel even safer. The National Trust managed seashore has welcomed naturists for more than 90 years. The 800 metre long section known is the National Trust’s only nudist beach and is popular with people of all ages and with families. However, from time to time reports are made of sexual misconduct or activity that threatens to bring naturism into disrepute.

Safer Neighbourhood Sergeant Des Connor was reported as saying : “Between summer 2005 and summer 2008, nine sexual offences were recorded in the Studland area and we want to keep this number as low as possible.”

To combat this Dorset Police has teamed up with The National Trust and Studland Beach Users’ Action Group (SBUAG) to provide wardens, who have been given training by Dorset Police and The National Trust. They will patrol Studland peninsula throughout July and August and offer help and advice to beach users.

Sergeant Connor added: “The Studland peninsula is a very safe place where families can enjoy the summer. This new multi-agency approach will make the beach area even safer.”

Naturist Beaches In The UK : Studland Dorset

Studland beach is located on the north-eastern tip of the part of Dorset known as the 'Isle of Purbeck', separated from Bournemouth by the entrance to Poole harbour. Easily the best-known naturist beach in the UK, it has also been voted the sixth-best beach in Britain.

The estate which owns the beach and surrounding heathland nature reserve was privately owned but has now passed into the hands of the National Trust . Studland is, for most of its length, a traditional textile beach. However, naturists have traditionally used the northernmost part, together with the nearby dunes. In recent years there has been some friction between some naturists and the NT because the latter has placed restrictions on the area used by naturists. On the positive side, nude use of the part of the beach is now "offically" sanctioned by the Trust.

There are two main ways of getting to Studland by car:
From the Purbeck (west) direction take the A351 from Wareham, turning left on to the B351 for Studland before reaching Corfe Castle. In Studland drive through the village and follow signs to the Studland Beach car park. Now walk north along the beach or tracks in the dunes until you reach the nude section which is marked by signposts on the beach and in the dunes.

From the Bournemouth (east) direction, a ferry runs from Sandbanks across the entrance to Poole harbour to the northern tip of Studland Heath. The distance is short, but at peak times there can be a long queue for the ferry. Shortly beyond the ferry there is an NT paying car park From here you walk east and then south along the beach past Shell Bay. Many visitors appear to park along the verge of Ferry Road - if you do, please take care not to obstruct the road. Alternatively, walk along the road to "Fire Point 6" and then through the nature reserve to the beach.

This really is one of the most beautiful beaches in the UK.
