  I believe this is where the photo was taken (note the rocky cliff jetting out into the water - perhaps it's closer to Culver Down): yellowpages.superpages.com/mapbasedsearch/mapsearch.jsp?s...

  I'm not sure it was taken there. This is Sandown, Isle of Wight. The pier is still in position today albeit with a lot of building on it so this is taken just a little way north of the pier, looking south. The hotels shown have now been entirely rebuilt and look quite different. The beach is much the same! This is the closest I can find:

  Sadly, Blackgang Chine is currently the venue of an amusement park featuring life-size plastic dinosaurs and a roller coaster.
