Studland, Coastal village in Dorset, England

The village extends along sandy beaches named South Beach, Middle Beach, Knoll Beach, and Shell Bay, spanning 4 kilometers of coastline.

Salt production facilities mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 demonstrate the early industrial activity of Studland during medieval times.

The Church of St Nicholas, constructed around 1180, stands as the primary historical structure within the village boundaries.

The village maintains regular bus connections to Swanage and Poole, with several parking areas available near the beaches.

The area served as a military training ground for D-Day preparations, with defensive fortifications constructed along Studland Bay during World War II.
