Looking for a fun family outing or a curious adventure? Head to Boggle Hole for some fossil hunting! 🦕
Explore the coastline steeped in Jurassic remains. Simply grab a Family Tracker Pack at the Old Coastguard Station, and hunt for fossils as the tide recedes. Don’t miss the rockpools for wildlife spotting! ⛏️🪨
Remember to fossil hunt responsibly:
• Look for fossils in loose beach material
• Only collect a small number
• Keep detailed records (what, where, when)
• Minimise hammering
• Avoid disturbing wildlife
