ITINERARY
Day 1 - Arrive in the morning and then drive along the coast road to Charmouth and Lyme Regis for a guided fossil hunt. You are practically guaranteed to find something to take home with you! Visit the Jurassic Coast Heritage Centre to see the amazing fossils on display there. Then back to your accommodation for dinner.
Day 2 - Drive east this time to visit the iconic Durdle Door, Lulworth Cove and Studland, from where you can see the famous Old Harry Rocks (or walk to them if you have the energy). Then back to Corfe Castle where you can either explore the castle ruins or take the heritage steam train down to Swanage and back.
Day 3 - Take a tour of the isle of Portland before heading back to the pretty harbour at Weymouth for fish and chips and a stroll along the prom before heading home.
