LOCATION

As you drive through the main highstreet of Sully, there are a number of roads leading to the beach (Southwards), most of these will gain easy access to the beach. Free easy parking is also permitted down these cul de sac roads with only a few yards to the beach.

EQUIPMENT

It is not worth splitting Jurassic rocks, you won't find any fossils in these, but you can use a heavy hammer to split any Jurassic rocks. You may also need a chisel if you wish to split a rock further down that contains any fossils.


SAFETY & DANGERS

Common sense when collecting at all locations should be taken and knowledge of tide times should always be noted. Tidal conditions need to be taken note of if visiting the island, and good time must be allowed to return. It is very easy to become cut off.
