About

The story

There's romance in casting off from the Cobb, the curving stone harbour arm that has sheltered Lyme Regis boats for centuries. These trips head out along the World Heritage coastline, where ancient cliffs give up their fossils and the sea shifts from teal to deep blue. Choose gentle sightseeing to drink in the geology and birdlife, or drop a line for mackerel over the wrecks and reefs. Knowledgeable skippers bring the coast's deep-time story to life, and the return past the Cobb, with the town rising behind, is picture-perfect.
