You can avoid traffic queues and stress, and do your bit for the environment, by leaving your car behind when you travel to Studland Bay. Here are some ways you can get here car free.
Go by bus – it a breeze!
From Swanage, Bournemouth or Poole, you can travel to any of the Studland beaches by using the Morebus no.50 Purbeck Breezer bus. And better still, until the end of December, the cost is just £3 per person.
Use peddle power
Studland Bay is on the National Cycle Network Route Two which runs east to Bournemouth and Poole and west to Corfe Castle and Wareham. Cycle racks are provided at Knoll Beach. You can also hire bikes from Cyclexperience at Purbeck Park, near Norden.
Steam in by train!
Studland isn’t served by any mainline trains, the nearest stations being Poole or Wareham, from where you’d need to catch a bus or cycle. But you can have an exciting heritage experience by catching the steam train from Wareham to Swanage Railway Station. From there you can catch a bus, walk or cycle.
Walk this way
Studland is right on the South West Coast Path. You can also walk along the 12 mile Rempstone Ride route from Norden Farm.
