The traditional seaside resort
of Sandown is one of the sunniest spots in Britain
and boasts the Isle of Wight’s only surviving
pleasure pier. It is also a paradise for
fossil-hunters.
The world-famous seafront museum,
Dinosaur Isle, has skeletons and bones aplenty.
A
walk along the six-mile beach and the
multi-coloured Culver Cliff (which has its own
dinosaur, Yaverlandia) may well turn up
still-uncollected fossils.
If you pay a visit make
sure to keep your eyes DOWN because the island
has some of the world's best preserved
dinosaur remains. |
