The Jurassic Coast


On our last evening in Bournemouth we were treated to some of the most breathtaking views I've ever laid eyes on. Rocketing around in an RIB speed boat, the Poole Sea Safari explores what's known as The Jurassic Coast, a world heritage site which stretches a distance of 155 kilometres along the southern coast of the English Channel. It was such a perfect way to spend our last afternoon, and Jacob and I were lucky enough to have the tour all to ourselves on the last run of the day. I can't tell you how exhilarating the views were, with the sun beaming down on the creamy faces of ancient rock, the sea twinkling like a sea of diamonds below. Everything was blanketed with velvety fields and rolling hills, and the caves etched into the cliffside were home to busy little puffins darting about. This landscape offered a different type of beauty to any I've seen before- there was something about the view that was so serene, bobbing there in the boat, just staring up at these massive structures, all I could do was shake my head in awe. 

You would have loved this, Mum. x
