Man-o-war Cove lies on the eastern side of the isthmus to Durdle Door beach. The shore consists mostly of flint shingle with the Man-o-war rocks just a short swim away. Backing the shore are high cliffs of chalk with nodules of marcasite. It's very sheltered, a good sun-trap and generally safe for swimming. Parking can be found at the nearby camp site which also has toilets and drinking water is available. From the car park, beach access is down a steep track followed by a steep path with steps. Dogs are allowed at all times.
