Enjoy spectacular views from the Golden Cap – highest point on Britain’s southern coastline. The name ‘Golden Cap’ comes from the warm yellow sandstone that caps the top of the cliff. From this lofty location at 191m (627ft) the views stretch out along the Jurassic Coast. To the east the view looks out along Chesil Beach to the tip of Portland Bill. To the west you can see round the bay past Charmouth and Lyme Regis to Start Point. Whilst inland you can see Pilsdon Pen.
