Compton Chine is a geological feature on the south west coast of theIsle of Wight,England. It lies between the village ofBrook to the east andFreshwater Bay to the west. It is a small sandy coastal gully, one of a number of suchchines on the island created by stream erosion of softCretaceous rocks. It leads from the 50 foot high clifftop to the beach ofCompton Bay.
The Chine drains water off the slopes ofCompton Down, to the north, into the sea.
TheIsle of Wight Coastal Path crosses the top of the chine via a small footbridge.
