Beach Jurassic, UK

From series “Top 15 Most Romantic Beaches on Earth”
In the surroundings of the city of Lyme Regis in the UK is a unique beach. A romantic walk through which will turn into a real journey into the past. The Jurassic beach is stony. From all other beaches of the planet it is distinguished by a huge number of remains of the inhabitants of sea depths that lived on our planet millions of years ago.

Beach Jurassic, UK Walking along the beach, you can find small petrified shells, as well as huge shells of predatory molluscs and impressive sized stones with traces of ancient life. One of the most pleasant additions to rest will be the fact that all artifacts found on the coast can be safely taken with you as souvenirs. Those who are afraid of not having time to obtaina unique historical artifact, there is no need to worry. On the coast, landslides often occur, as a result of which new remains of the most ancient marine inhabitants are discovered.

As it was mentioned earlier, some fossils differ in impressive sizes, so it is unlikely to be possible to take them with you. On the beach you can make a lot of spectacular photos, as well as feel like a real archaeologist, armed with a magnifying glass and a small scoop for sifting small stones. The beach of the Jurassic period is an ideal place for those who have a romantic holiday associated with unusual entertainment. Next - Panalu Black Beach
