A DORSET beauty spot has been named among the world’s most beautiful beaches.
Durdle Door has been named the 9th most beautiful beach in the world according to new research conducted by online slots site Betway.
It joins Turquoise Bay in Western Australia and Horseshoe Bay in Bermuda which also featured in the top 10.
Betway has been ranking the top 100 beaches in the world by looking at visitor reviews, average temperature, rainfall during the summer months, amount of litter and Instagram tags at each location.
It was noted that thousands of visitors flock to Durdle Door every year, racking up over 299k tags on Instagram.
Commenting on the research, travel blogger Hayley Warren at Strangeness and Charm, said: “Whether it’s palm trees and turquoise waters or a rugged volcanic backdrop that you’re looking for, there is a beach for every type of holidaymaker on this list.”
