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 town of Totland where it takes its name. It faces north west and has a 2.5-mile-long (4.0 kilometres) shoreline and is comprised of a straight west encountering coastline which has a coastline, concrete seawall, groynes and abandoned 450-foot-long (140 m) Victorian pier and a straight north facing rough shoreline. It extends from Warden Point in the north to Hatherwood Point in the south-west. The seabed is a combination of mud and sand, clear of many undersea outcrops, this makes it a popular anchorage point for vessels. The coastline is predominantly shingle. Because 2001 the high quality of the coastline has been high sufficient for it to be granted the Seaside Award Flag. In the summertime, clutter and algae are gotten rid of every day, with the latter being composted by regional farmers. Currently, the pier is being refurbished to re-open the coffee shop which was there before. The bay is finest seen from Headon Warren or anywhere along the concrete seawall. The Isle of Wight Coastal Path runs along the seawall from Warden Point to Widdick Chine.
