Explore the UNESCO Jurassic Coast – Fossils, Cliffs & Seaside Heritage
The East Devon and Dorset Coastline have been awarded UNESCO World Heritage status. A stretch of coastline unique globally. The only place on the planet whereby you can view all ancient rock strata identified within the time frames of Jurassic, Cretaceous and Triassic periods, all in one 90 mile stretch of coastline. Rich red desert sandstone, crumbly white chalk and fossil dense slate and shale are many of the colours in the cliff faces on this journey into East Devon and Dorset.
Combine the fascinating history of the ancient geology with picturesque fishing village heritage and the classic Victorian seaside retreats of Sidmouth and Lyme Regis and you have a truly unique tour day out.
This truly inspiring journey offers humbling reminders that we only exist in a blink of the Earth's history.
Glacial melt river basins long since flowing, natural shelf shingle bank beaches that stretch for miles and rock formations that only Mother Nature could design. A Jurassic Coast tour into East Devon and Dorset will educate, inspire and bring home the ancient history of our planet.
We will drift from Exmouth along to Budleigh Salterton & Sidmouth before maybe dedicating some time to fossil finding on either Lyme Regis or Charmouth beaches, one of Mary Anning's favourites in her paleontologist days. A recent bronze statue of her was recently unveiled in Lyme Regis.

Set-jetting also appeals to the visitor in this area with locations inspiring both classic adaptations and more recent TV dramas with the unique and individual landscape and features that have been such a hit with writers, poets and film makers alike.
From Jane Austins "Persuasion" utilising Lyme Regis' infamous Cobb harbour area, to the high cliffs of West Bay, or Broadchurch as some will recognise it. Slightly further up the coast is Thomas Hardy country and Dorset to this day is home to hundreds of influential authors, artists and musicians all drawing from the rolling, ever changing landscape and seascapes for inspiration.
East Devon and Dorset have World class interest for geologists, fossil hunters and those seeking to re-connect with our own existence.
