Photography of Beach Huts
The beach huts on Portland are fun to walk around and also to take photographs. You can read a recent piece by Piranha Photography about photographing the beach huts on the blog. One of the photographs was featured on the BBC website – see below.
Also on Portland near Portland Bill you will find the Lobster Pot restaurant which provides lunch and ice creams for walkers.
Portland Bill light house is open to the public and if you have the energy you can climb the stairs up to see the light. We recommend a visit to Portland as a great day out in any weather.
