In this guide, you’ll learn: • Where fossil hunting is possible around Peveril Point • What fossils may be found here, including Jurassic marine fossils • How Peveril Point fits into the wider Durlston and Swanage geology • The best tides and sea conditions for safe access • Safety advice for rocky ledges, sea cliffs, and wave exposure The two kilometre stretch of coastal sea cliffs between Peveril Point and Durlston Head near Swanage displays the finest sections of the Purbeck Limestone Group in Britain. Here, in a challenging and hazardous terrain, tiny mammal remains, turtle shell and bone fragments, crocodile bone and skin fragments, fish remains and dinosaur footprints can be found. Durlston Bay is also a good location for micro fossils. Durlston Bay is a fascinating place, although better suited for the geologist or experienced fossil collector. ⚠️ Always check tide and sea conditions, and take care on exposed coastal ledges.

Join the UK Fossils Road Tour as we explore Quantoxhead, Somerset, a productive fossil hunting location along the Bristol Channel, east of Kilve and part of the classic Somerset coast. In this guide, we cover: • Where to fossil hunt around Quantoxhead • Common fossils found here, including ammonites, bivalves, and marine fossils • How the local geology links with Monmouth Beach in Dorset and other Blue Lias Locations • The best tides and conditions for successful fossil hunting • Safety advice for mudstone ledges, wave-cut platforms, and fast tides We also find a rare Ichthyosaur coracoid bone, and show where this bone comes from and what it was used for. Quantoxhead is well known for its Lower Jurassic exposures and wide intertidal areas, making it a rewarding stop when visited at low tide. ⚠️ Always check tide times and be aware of the rapid tidal range of the Bristol Channel.

Join the UK Fossils Road Tour as we explore Aust Cliff near Bristol, one of the most historically important fossil localities in Britain, famous for its Late Triassic bone beds and dramatic position above the Severn Estuary. In our latest trip, we find so many fossil teeth and fossil reptile bones it was a truly crazy day of finds. In this guide, we cover: • Where Aust Cliff is and how to view it safely • The types of fossils historically found here, including reptile bones, fish remains, and shark material • The geological importance of the Triassic bone beds • How the Severn Bore affects tides and safety in the area ⚠️ Important Safety & Conservation Notice Aust Cliff is a dangerous site with very high tides influenced by the Severn Bore. Access is limited, cliffs are unstable. Subscribe for more locations as the UK Fossils Road Tour continues, promoting ethical, safe fossil hunting across the UK.

Join the UK Fossils Road Tour as we visit Pirates Cove at Fleet Lagoon, Dorset, a quiet and geologically interesting stretch of the Dorset coast. ⚠️ Important – Sensitive Site Notice Pirates Cove and the surrounding Fleet Lagoon area are environmentally sensitive and protected. This location should be treated as a look-but-don’t-disturb site. No tools should be used here, and collecting should be limited to loose, naturally weathered material only. Always follow local conservation guidance and access rules. In this guide, we cover: • Where Pirates Cove is within the Fleet Lagoon system • The geological interest of the area and what fossils may be present • Why minimal-impact fossil hunting is essential here • The best tides and conditions for safe access • Safety advice for soft sediments, lagoon edges, and changing conditions Pirates Cove is best appreciated for its natural setting and geological context, rather than as a productive collecting site, making responsible behaviour especially important.
