The Jurassic Coast is England’s first natural world heritage site, situated at Dorset and East Devon Coast. The Jurassic coast represents 185 million years of the Earth's ancient history in just 95 miles of coast. This is the finest record through the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous periods of geological time anywhere in the World and a trip along this coastline is like travelling through time! (Source: http://www.jurassiccoast.com/). You can travel around the Jurassic Coast by bus, foot, bike, train and boat.
I used the cheapest and the ‘easiest’ way, that’s travelling by foot. I walked through the South West National Trail Coast Path, which is over 1000 km (630 miles) long. Well, I walked 2 hr and only managed to reach 1/5 of the total coast line, Budleigh Salterton. The coast path provides a continuous coastal adventure through the site and a great way to experience the breath taking scenery.
**info extracted from the brochure obtained at tourist information centre.
Expenses: I spent £ 2.25 for return train tickets (£ 1.20 discount for youth travel card holder). Meal FOC, as I prepared myself.
