Geology Day Trip

About

A day-long field trip along the Devon coastline

Our Geology Day Trip is an incredible all-day geology tour that sails you along one of the most breath-taking parts of the British coastline.

With a leading geologist on-board, our geology field trips have a full commentary throughout going into fantastic detail on all the rock formations and ever-changing heritage landscape as we gently sail past.

Tides and weather will determine the specific route of this cruise, sailing either along Britain’s only natural World Heritage Site Jurassic Coast or along the stunning South Devon Coastline.

The South Devon coastline is extremely popular as there is such a variety of rock types and ages clearly exposed in a relatively condensed area. The start of the Jurassic Coast on the other side of the Exe estuary extends 95 miles along to Swanage. The geological history shows over 185 million years of conditions marked by a ‘Great Unconformity’ or time gap distinguishing the rocks of different ages.

Sailing on the Pride of Exmouth, there is a fully licenced bar on board serving a range of hot and cold refreshments and snacks. The open top deck is perfect for plenty of fresh aired viewing and the enclosed lower deck is heated with large panoramic windows. Maintaining its traditional features, this boat is also modern, exceptionally clean, and well maintained and there are toilets on board. Our efficient and friendly Crew are also on hand throughout the day to help make this extraordinary day trip even more memorable.

Duration: 6.5 hours
