Alum Chine is a chine in Bournemouth, England.

It gives its name to a number of local features, Alum Chine Beach being the most obvious, and also to an area of the city, and a telephone exchange.

In early maps the place was often transposed with Durely Chine.

The ship Alum Chine, destroyed in a dynamite explosion in 1911 was also named after the chine.
