Church Doors

Church doors is a small rocky beach close to Manorbier where sand is exposed at low tide. There is a large natural arch and a few caves along the steep rocky cliffs that back the beach.

Skrinkle Haven, just to the south of Church Doors, is separated by a tall thin limestone ridge. There are, however, no steps down to Skrinkle Haven, and the beach must not be accessed from Church Doors because of the high risk of being cut off by the tide.

There is a small free car park just a 2 minute walk east of Church Doors. The beach is accessed with many steps down from the coast path. There is a youth hostel close to the beach, but no shops or public facilities.
