“I cannot recommend this enough!
Had such a fantastic time on the Nature Tales & Trails Fossil Walk with Anthea!
I went expecting an enjoyable walk, but it turned out to be so much more. Anthea is incredibly knowledgeable, passionate and has a wonderful way of explaining things that makes geology and fossils fascinating, even if you've never had an interest in them before. I learned so much and now look at the coastline with completely different eyes.
The walk was relaxed, engaging and full of amazing discoveries. It's hard to believe that so much history is literally beneath your feet! Anthea's enthusiasm is infectious and she creates such a welcoming atmosphere that everyone feels involved.
I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who enjoys nature, loves learning something new or is simply looking for a unique day out.” Sunciva P., Google review, 2026
