Lepe is a coastal Country Park in the New Forest National Park. There are stunning views across the Solent to the Isle of Wight.

With over a mile of beach, pine fringed cliffs, historic D-Day remains and wild flower meadows, Lepe is a great day out, whether you want to relax and take in the view or do something a bit more energetic.
