West Bay is a Gateway Town to the Jurassic Coast.
Just south of Bridport is the pretty harbour village of West Bay, once known as Bridport Harbour. The BBC TV drama Harbour Lights was shot here, putting West Bay on the map. The seafront has two piers and is lined with old cottages, characteristic kiosks and an early 19th century customs house.
