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 old 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.
