Best Hotels Near Jurassic Coast Dorset
The Jurassic Coast is England's only natural UNESCO World Heritage Site, a 96-mile stretch of Dorset and Devon coastline that exposes 185 million years of geological history in its cliffs, beaches, and rock formations. From the Triassic red cliffs near Exmouth to the Cretaceous chalk stacks at Old Harry Rocks, the coast provides fossil hunters with ammonites, ichthyosaurs, and marine reptiles eroded from the cliff faces after every storm. Hotels along the Dorset Jurassic Coast in Lyme Regis, Charmouth, and West Bay offer the most active fossil hunting access with expert guides available.
