Places to Visit near the Jurassic Coast
There are so many picturesque towns and villages dotted along
this UNESCO designated World Heritage Site, with Devon's
coast being home to the welcoming town of Sidmouth,
where a shingle beach lines the shores and offers a promenade for
you to explore. Further along, this part of the coast is the
fishing harbour of Seaton,
home to the famed Seaton Tramway, and a glorious, shingle
beach.
Why not venture to the Dorset
coast, which enjoys the eastern part of the Jurassic Coast and
is home to even more fantastic locations? One of which is the
marvellous town of Lyme
Regis, a coastal resort where visitors can learn of the
coastline's intriguing history at the museums, before embarking
on a guided fossil hunting walk along the beaches and the ammonite
pavement. West
Bay with its famed cliffs and golf club, and Weymouth
with its ample beachfront amusements, RSPB areas and historical
landmarks, also rest on this section of the coast.
