The Purbeck Coast - Home to puffins, gannets, kittiwakes and guillemots, the internationally recognised Jurassic Coast and designated World Heritage Site, offers a spectacular seascape of sights and sounds of nesting and roosting seabirds.

Poole Harbour - A haven for winter birds, with large colonies of Advocets, shelducks, black-tailed godwits and red-breasted mergansers. Poole Harbour offers spectacular views of these stunning birds as well as other species such as great crested grebes, little egrets and oystercatchers which all live within the estuary area.

Brownsea Island - This 240 acre reserve occupies the northern half of the island and is leased from the National Trust who own the island and manage the southern half. Thousands of birds flock to the island's fresh water and saline lagoons during the winter to feed - up to 1,400 avocets have been recorded here at once.

Chichester Harbour - Iinternationally renowned for birds and for its coastal habitats. The late winter months (January to March) are great months for bird watching in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There are a wide variety of habitats including mudflats, dunes, shingle banks and woodlands, all valuable refuges for sea birds and other interesting wildlife species.

The Jurassic Coast - The Jurassic Coast runs from Exmouth in East Devon along the coast to the Southern end of Studland Bay in Dorset . This 95 mile stretch of coast with its changing scenery goes back 250 million years and is the best place in the World to see a complete sequence of rocks from the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous periods of geological time.

Imagine exploring the Jurassic coast from your own RIB, stopping at will to take pictures, or landing to picnic or bar-becue on the beach. We can design runs that leave from a number of points along the Jurassic coast, to view whatever period in time you require. Beer, Exmouth, Sidmouth, Lulworth Cove, Lyme Regis, Poole and Weymouth are all starting possibilities and we can either return to point of departure or finish at a different convenient point.

This is Europe's only World Heritage Coast, which the Rocks, the Fossils, the Geomorphological (erosion) features and beautiful coastline are just a few reasons why the coast has been designated a World Heritage site. The oldest rocks from the Triassic period (200-250 million years old) form the Red Cliffs of East Devon. The dark clay rocks around Lyme Regis show Jurassic rocks (200 million years old) while the youngest Cretaceous rocks form the Isle of Portland (140 million years old). From Purbeck, through Lulworth Cove and out to Ballard Down runs a huge fold. Here the best sections through the Cretaceous rocks are exposed. Along the coast there are a number of exceptional Fossil sites, including Lower Jurassic rocks at Lyme Regis, Fossil Forrest on Portland and Lulworth Cove. The Geomorphological (erosion) features can be seen on different parts of all our rides. Chesil Beach and the Fleet, the raised beaches of Portland, Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove are excellent examples. Research and Education is continually being updated with new Fossil finds nearly every year. New ideas of how Chesil Beach was formed are being investigated. There is now speculation that perhaps Chesil is disappearing?
