Totland Bay
Totland Bay is a bay on the west shore of the Isle of Wight, England. It lies one-quarter of an mile (0.4 km) to the west of the village of Totland from which it takes its name. It faces north west and also has a 2.5-mile-long (4.0 kilometres) coastline and is made up of a straight west facing coastline which has a beach, concrete seawall, groynes as well as run-down 450-foot-long (140 m) Victorian pier as well as a straight north facing rough shoreline. It stretches from Warden Point in the north to Hatherwood Point in the south-west. The seabed is a mix of mud and sand, clear of lots of underwater outcrops, this makes it a popular anchorage factor for vessels. The beach is mostly tile. Since 2001 the high quality of the beach has actually been high sufficient for it to be awarded the Seaside Award Flag. In the summertime, trash and also algae are removed every day, with the last being composted by neighborhood farmers. Currently, the pier is being reconditioned to re-open the coffee shop which existed before. The bay is finest watched from Headon Warren or anywhere along the concrete seawall. The Isle of Wight Coastal Path leaves the seawall from Warden Point to Widdick Chine.
