- In this video I’m in Charmouth Dorset! On the hunt for Fossils along the Jurassic coast line!!
I show you some easy ways to find the ammonites, all you need is a keen eye and a lot of patience!
We go along Charmouth and venture across to Lyme Regis a lovely town full with quirky shops, bakeries & Restaurants.
Lyme Regis & Charmouth is full of history and worth checking out their museums.
We highly recommend if you visit having Lyme Regis Fish & Chips:
The Lyme Fish Bar - www.lymesfishbar.com/
Also Charmouth Fish & Chips:

Wow, that looks like so much fun! I’d walk around with a telescope pointed at the ground if I was there. 😂🤣🐦💙
It really is great fun. The excitements not knowing what may turn up! The stars there are amazing too so it would be worth packing the 🔭 😊🌱
1:30 it looks like you missed another (that has been caught by the camera), its about a hand's width diagnonnaly up and right of the one you picked up. You can just see the ridges emerging through the sand !
Wow, truely spectacular finds !! Liked the BBQ lunch as well.
Hope you figure out what those specimens are !!
Cheers
Thank you! Really quite please with the finds! The bacon roll kept the troops moving :D
I’ve cleaned those unidentified finds up a little. Definitely worth a little research. I’ve been fairly flat out since getting back! It’s on the agenda 🌱😊
Many stunning finds,cant wait to be down in charmouth at the end of October,we've been fossiling between seatown and lyme regis since 1979 and never get bored of it,it's a magical place to be.
Couldn’t agree more with you! It’s a firm fav of mine. It’s a case of the simple things in life right! Enjoy your trip. Il certainly be trying to squeeze in a winter visit. Thank you for you comment 🙂
Really unexpected and really interesting. As a kid in Australia all i ever wanted to be was a paleontogolist. Until I found out you dont get paid much :)
Thank you Xav! There’s more to life the government fun tokens I’m sure 😂 much the same as a kid obsessed with Dinos nature ect you soon realise the best jobs in them fields are rare, seemingly impossible to get into and underpaid. I guess it’s like being a footballer to some chasing the dream! 🌱
Thank you so much for taking us along with you. I love searching for fossils at at Lyme Regis (and hopefully a cap badge or 2).
You are most welcome! One of my favourite places to visit. Amazing scenery with the magic of not quite know what will turn up in the mud :D thank you for watching!
Some nice finds there! I only have a couple of non fossil suggestions to make. Number one: Don't waste your money on Costa coffee. Go to the Galley Cafe!! Second thing: Bacon sandwich with no butter or brown sauce looked dry and disappointing but I do like your folding stove thing. 🤙
also at 4:44, his thumb literally bumped another one while picking up one ammonite. The other one looks kind of cool, like it was a double decker.
Very Observant thank you for watching through. Many folk comment on my videos and ask me questions without watching in entirety! I must say I may have pick it up out of shot but maybe I didn’t you might spot it in a upcoming video where I intend to through my Jurassic coast finds! I’m happy a lucky person or youngster might have found it and may treasure it. This was a exceptional trip for pyrite ammonites can’t scoop them all :D
Walked along both sides of the Charmouth beach today 14th May 2024 not found a single fossil? Strange how the you tube videos find loads of Ammonites on the surface
Nice hunt Sam! Me and my missus were at Lyme Regis fossil hunting just a few days ago! Big love from Rob Rivett...small world.
Thanks mate! Oh really! It is a small world, Must have just missed you literally! Did you guys find much?
@@nillysbonsai9636 yeah we had a nice hunt, I'll send you a pic on Facebook if I can find you!
Nice haul ❤
Thank you! 🤗
Hi just subscribed liked the pot making also watched the seed collecting enjoyable videos thanks for all the information in them 👍
Thanks for the sub and kind comment. Hopefully more of what you enjoying going forward 😊🌱
Ammonites lived during the Jurassic and Cretaceous time periods. In the Triassic, it was Ceratites that were living. And before the Ceratites, Goniatites were the ammonoids living.
Thank you for your comment 👌
The bones are broken parts of ichthyosaur jaws
Also that was a really nice hunt you found some cool things
Thank you very much for this info. I had my suspicions! How keen we’ve looked up and down this site over the years it was only a matter of time until I found a piece!
If you're not sure what you have found ask the bloke in the museum. He is very helpful and knows his fossils. I thought I'd found a load of dino teeth but he had a look and they turned out to be belemnites (a bit like straight ammonites) really quite cool. He'd be able to identify your unknown finds I'm sure.
We would have popped in there but our trip was fairly out of season I guess and most days we come back from adventures and the shops be shut! I love the visitor centre and little shop there tho deffo worth a look!
No way you called belemnites straight ammonites that are completely different as belemnites are the backbone of the squid
@@legendgodmyth Yes way, I described them as "a bit like a straight ammonite". If you had read the previous part of my comment where I said that I thought they were "dino teeth" then you would have realized that I am no expert on the subject, quite clueless really but they are very interesting.
@@suiseki2571 well now you know
@@legendgodmyth I certainly do, they are very interesting and cool to find.
My favourite place to go unfortunately it’s a 2.5 hour drive 😢
It’s up there for me too! Favourite places! Unfortunately no closer for at 3.5 if you don’t stop 🤣
Bacon
🥓 on the Beach 🏖
