Another bracing walk to the iconic Needles beckons. We first visited back in 2017 and you can read all about that here.

It’s fairly blustery along the cliff edge hence a lot of windy looking selfies!


The name ‘Needles’ is believed to have been derived from a slender tapering rock pinnacle .
This needle-shaped rock, about 120ft high, known as ‘Lot’s Wife’ collapsed into the sea in 1764 . The stump of this pinnacle can still be seen at low water where it forms a dangerous reef.
