The moon is stunning tonight! It’s incredibly bright and looks near on a full moon, although we’ve just gone past full moon, this one being a 96% waning gibbous. 🌝🌕

I love that you can make out all those overlapping crafters on the right hand side! 🧀

We were sorry to hear that one of our favourite cruise ships, which we always love to see passing the Bill, has been involved in a collision with container ships in Germany on Sunday night.

Thankfully, no one was injured, but the damage is significant, with several lifeboats damaged, along with parts of the ship’s exterior and bridge. The container ships involved also sustained damage.

It’s always lovely to see Mein Schiff 3 (TUI Cruises) passing Portland Bill, and we hope the ship is repaired soon and back at sea before too long. 🚢❤️

Braved the elements (mostly wind and sea spray!) to get some shakey noisy windy footage. For anyone that’s curious this is what it’s like at the bill at the moment! 🌊 🌊 🌊 💨 💨 💨

The trailer for Series 3 of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power has dropped, featuring a snippet of Pulpit Rock, filmed here in October 2025!

Funny, I don’t remember all those ships or a massive walled city behind it when we were watching them film this!🤣🚢🏰

Still, nice to see Portland making it to Middle-earth. Shame the ships weren’t here in real life!

Storm Austen at Portland Bill: the sea was quite dramatic this morning, as expected during a PB storm, although tides are not overly high at the moment, and north westerly winds pushing waves more sideways than directly over the rocks and ledges! 💨 💨 💨 🌊 🌊 🌊

🚨 TRAVEL UPDATE: PORTLAND BEACH ROAD AND CAUSEWAY REOPEN

The Portland beach road has been closed this morning due to weather conditions associated with Storm Austen.

It is expected to remain closed until around 1pm today after which time the highest risks of flooding subside, although it will only reopen when it is considered safe to do so.

21/10/2026

The sea was choppy and the winds were blowing strong today! It’s that time of year again ! 🙂 💨 🌊
Roll on Storm Austen on Friday! 💪👉
