Some families return time and again to search with Paddy and Chris among the sand and rocks for fossils that have been washed-down onto the beach after 150 million years.
Your fossil walk ticket gives you free access to the museum where you will be able to see displays of rare fossils, learn all about Mary Anning, the famous early palaeontologist who once lived on the site of the museum and much, much more. Full payment is needed at time of booking so please have your card details when you contact us on 01297 443370 or walks@lymeregismuseum.co.uk.
