Compton Bay

The entire section of coast along Compton Bay provides a worthwhile day out, with opportunities to find pieces of dinosaur bone (mostly rolled) and possibly teeth; and to see the large number of dinosaur footprints scattered along the coast. This section is famous for the remains and footprints of dinosaurs, for which the Isle of Wight is famous. Both commonly occur on the foreshore. Cretaceous, Cliffs and Foreshore, Rating: ♦♦♦♦♦

Hastings

Hastings’ Early Cretaceous sandstone and mudstone preserve plant remains, shells and vertebrate fossils along the shore east of Rock-a-Nore. The cliffs towards Ecclesbourne Glen also record river channels and dinosaur footprints. Beach access changes as the coast erodes: use only an open, signed route and never cross a safety barrier.
