Sand status, settled. Each beach carries its month ring — moss means go, rosehip means the council says no.

Charmouth Beach

Dogs banned MAY–SEP

The fossil beach at the mouth of the Char, split in two by the river: East Beach towards Golden Cap, West Beach towards Lyme. Dorset Council places no restrictions at all on East Beach, while West Beach is open to dogs from 1 October to 30 April only. Get the side right and you can walk a dog here in August.
