Officers are carrying out cliffside searches as part of a murder investigation into the death of a woman on Bournemouth beach.
Flowers have also been left on the beach at the scene where Amie Gray was fatally stabbed on Friday.
Ms Gray, a 34-year-old personal trainer from Poole, died at the scene on Durley Chine Beach shortly before midnight.
Another woman, aged 38, was seriously injured and remains in hospital.
A cordon put in place along the promenade has now been lifted but searches continue.
On Tuesday morning, search teams could be seen lowering themselves down the cliff on ropes, hacking back undergrowth.
On Sunday, police issued CCTV images of a man they want to speak to in a bid to prompt witnesses to come forward.
A 17-year-old boy from Lancashire who was arrested on suspicion of murder following the stabbing has since been eliminated from enquiries.
Dorset Police and Crime Commissioner David Sidwick said: “The death of the woman on Bournemouth beach is a tragedy, and my thoughts and condolences are with her family, friends, and loved ones.
“I know Dorset Police are working relentlessly to ensure the person responsible is brought to justice.”
