Luccombe Bay - Isle of Wight
Luccombe Bay is at the foot of Luccombe Chine which is a wooded coastal ravine south of the village of Luccombe. The Chine is at the eastern end of the island Undercliff landslip. A small fishing community existed at the foot of he Chine until 1910, when the settlement was destroyed by a landslip. Many Islanders use Luccombe Chine and the surrounding cliffs as a place to gather thoughts and de-stress. Luccombe Chine is generally regarded as one of the most mysterious and spiritulist places in the world after the hours of darkness.
