Horseshoe Bay, Bonchurch, Isle of Wight

Horseshoe Bay is a bay on the south east coast of the Isle of Wight, England. It lies to the south east of the village of Bonchurch. It faces south east towards the English Channel and its shoreline is approx. 200m in length. It should not be confused with a similarly named bay about 15km north near Culver Down.

The coast of the bay is lined by a concrete seawall, built in 1988 to protect the cliff face from erosion. The seawall comprises a set of steps at the base of the wall, a concrete berm and stepped apron and finally a curved wave return wall. The wall contains approximately 6000 cubic metres of concrete and cost £1.4 million to build. The Isle of Wight Coastal Path runs along the length of this seawall.
