Out and About in Dorset
Jurassic Coast
The Jurassic Coast covers 95 miles of truly stunning coastline from East Devon to Dorset, with rocks recording 185 million years of the Earth's history.
The popular Dorset Coast Path has 59 bridges, 77 gates, 125 stiles and 2,123 steps - great for walking and savouring the beauty of its impressive cliffs and spectacular landslips. It is a part of the longer South West Coast Path that runs from Poole Harbour to Minehead and the adjoining gateway towns which provide direct access to the coast.
From many vantage points you might spot, out at sea, a bottlenose dolphin, so it's a good idea to always have your camera at the ready!
