Daddy Hole once a highly productive quarry now forms part of the Torquay Coastline, rich in Devonian Corals this site is now a special site of scientific interest. Corals can be found both within the quarry and foreshore scree slopes.

Hopes Nose is one of the most famous locations for Devonian Corals, Trilobites and Bivalves from in the UK. The Natural History Museum in London has a large number of specimens on display from this location.

What makes Pinhay Bay so geologically interesting is the range of fossils that can be found, from the Jurassic Lias, Fish, Ammonites, Shells, Belemnites and from the Cretaceous Chalk, Echinoid's, Shells, Sea Urchin Spines.

Chalk and Greensand at Seaton is highly fossilferious and makes ideal collecting. Ammonites, Echinoid's, Brachiopods and Bivalves can all be collected. There is plenty of rocks and fresh falls to look through.

At the mouth of the River Exe, Budleigh Salterton is famous for the Pebble Beds that yield large numbers of shells when split. This location is ideal for children and families, splitting the pebbles is easy as they are quite small.

Within the Baggy Beds at Baggy Point, layers of sandy deposits yield Corals, Bryozoans, Brachiopods, Bivalves and Crinoids. The Sandy deposits can sometimes be hard to find and the fossils are poorly preserved.

Along the river banks of Fremington, rocks from the Devionian age can be seen packed with Brachiopods and Bivalves. The local is easy to access and makes a wonderful day out. All you need is a good eye and to stroll along the banks.

Set in beautiful scenery, Lynmouth is famous for its cable train taking you the Lymouth hill to give spectacular views. The high cliffs yield Bryozoans, Brachiopods, Bivalves and Pteraspids, although many are poorly preserved.

The Chalk at Beer is nodular which makes collecting more difficult. The nodules contain Echinoid's and Shells are normally well preserved and of excellent quality.

The Baggy Beds at Woolacombe have yielded fish fragments and shells in the past from the area heading towards Croyde. However these are extremely rare and it is unlikely that fossils will be found on any excursion to this area.

Fossils from Exmouth are extremely rare, the Cliffs are unfossiliferious but fossils can be found from splitting pebbles from the Budleigh Salterton Pebble Bed. The Pebbles can contain Brachiopods and Bivalves.
