Totland Bay
Totland Bay is a bay on the west coastline of the Isle of Wight, England. It exists one-quarter of an mile (0.4 kilometres) to the west of the town of Totland from which it takes its name. It encounters north west and has a 2.5-mile-long (4.0 kilometres) coastline and is comprised of a straight west facing shore which has a beach, concrete seawall, groynes and derelict 450-foot-long (140 m) Victorian pier and also a straight north facing rough coast. It extends from Warden Point in the north to Hatherwood Point in the south-west. The seabed is a blend of mud as well as sand, free from several underwater outcrops, this makes it a preferred anchorage factor for vessels. The beach is mostly tile. Since 2001 the quality of the coastline has been high sufficient for it to be awarded the Seaside Award Flag. In the summer season, trash and algae are eliminated each day, with the last being composted by local farmers. Currently, the pier is being reconditioned to re-open the cafe which was there before. The bay is ideal checked out from Headon Warren or anywhere along the concrete seawall. The Isle of Wight Coastal Path runs along the seawall from Warden Indicate Widdick Chine.
