Dorset’s Jurassic Coast – Bald Explorer goes to Dancing Ledge

In today’s video, Dave Ford takes me to the fascinating quarry along the Dorset coastline known as Dancing Ledge.

Dancing Ledge is part of the Jurassic Coast near Langton Matravers in the Isle of Purbeck in Dorset, England. Dancing Ledge is a flat area of rock at the base of a small cliff. A little scrambling is required for access. It is signposted on the South West Coast Path a few kilometres west of Swanage. Dancing Ledge is so called because at certain stages of the tide when the waves wash over the horizontal surface, the surface undulations cause the water to bob about making the ledge appear to dance.
