The coast at Charmouth in Dorset, is a part of the World Heritage Site Jurassic Coast. The area was visited on a glorious sunny December day. The beaches around Charmouth are world famous for the amazing Jurassic period fossils that can be found washed out of the cliffs. Many of those discovered are on display in the Heritage Centre.
