The East <strong>Devon</strong> coastline is designated a<br />

UNESCO World Heritage Site in recognition of<br />

its geological significance. Known as the Jurassic<br />

Coast, it showcases perfectly the Earth’s history<br />

going back over 250 million years. Discover more<br />

about this fascinating coastline at the Seaton<br />

Jurassic visitor centre. Further south, the English<br />

Riviera has been designated a Global Geopark,<br />

in recognition of its rich geological, historical and<br />

cultural heritage. The highest concentration of<br />

Blue Flag beaches in England, combined with the<br />

English Rivera’s fantastically warm microclimate<br />

means there is plenty of opportunity to get out<br />

on the water and discover the incredible geology<br />

and marine life here.<br />
