Jurassic Coast, Dorset, England

If you're a fan of dinosaurs, trilobites or fossilised shells, then let's visit the Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in England. It stretches along the southern coast from Exmouth in East Devon to Studland Bay in Dorset. This area is like a giant natural history museum, with rocks and cliffs that reveal 185 million years of Earth's history. But what really steals the show are the fossils, especially those of belemnites and ammonites—extinct marine creatures—that are pictured here. Mary Anning, a pioneering fossil hunter who combed these shores, paved the way for our current understanding of fossils. Now, it's your turn to embark on a journey through time.
