The busy resort of Totland,
with its lovely beaches, is the most westerly
village on the north coast of the Isle of Wight.
On its outskirts is Headen Warren, which offers
stunning views of The Solent, Alum Bay and the
Needles. Not far from here is Alum Bay whose
remarkable cliffs vary in hue from yellow and
brown through to green, white and many other
shades, all created by the action of waves on
minerals in the rocks. The beach is reached via
more than 200 steps. It was here that the world’s
first wireless station was established in 1897. |
