A rockfall has blocked a section of beach on Dorset's Jurassic Coast.
The collapse means there is no access between Freshwater and West Bay where the clifftop coast path is already closed.
Rockfalls are common along the iconic stretch of sandstone cliffs, which famously appeared in the TV series Broadchurch.
Dorset Council urged people to stay away, warning the cliffs and debris may remain unstable.
In a Facebook post, Bridport Town Council said: "Whilst locals are all aware of the dangers, our guests and visitors may not know to stay away from the base of cliffs.
"Rockfalls and landslides can happen at any time. If you are under a rockfall, the likelihood is you will die."
Dorset Council asked people not to climb over the rockfall.
A statement said: "Please stay safe by taking notice of warning signs and keep to existing paths.
"Stay away from the edge and the base of cliffs."
