Heading west, through the Dorset countryside we make our way into Purbeck, the gateway to the Jurassic Coast. Full of thatch cottages, 17th century english villages and castles which has been fought over for hundreds of years.
First stop is Durlston Park. Known for its wildlife and gateway to the Jurassic Coast. The castle here built in the Victorian period and the 40 ton Great Globe, one of the largest globes in the world. The globe was situated in 1891.
A must whilst on the Jurassic Coast is visiting Corfe Castle and the village of Corfe. Rich in 1000 years of history, betrayal and treachery! From Edward being stabbed in the back to William the Conqueror keeping the Crown Jewels here.
The famous natural arch and a beautiful secluded cove; their existence owed to the collision of continents and the birth of the Alps millions of years ago. Durdle Door is a must-see for any trip to this region.
Lulworth Cove is world famous for its unique geology and land-forms including the Lulworth Crumple and Stair Hole. Thousands of people each year come to enjoy the panoramic views and crystal clear waters on this stretch of the UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The 'isle' of Portland, located on the World Heritage Coast, is an explorer's Island with curiosities of history and folklore just waiting to be discovered. We look west over the 18 miles of Chesil beach and the southernmost tip of the Jurassic Coast. With its 3 castles and 3 lighthouses, this little island packs a punch!
Spend time in the Victorian fishing harbour town of Weymouth. With its little streets, fish and chip shops and 2 mile golden beach, this is a little town with a lot to offer. Weymouth also provides a rich history too! Did you know the D-Day Landings left from Weymouth?

Wear sensible footwear and bring a shower proof jacket. There is some walking involved to see the attractions on the coast and some of the trails can seem steep.
