Where to look for Fossils at Sandsend


(Sandsend Cliffs) - 1994

Most of the fossils are found after cliff falls at Sandsend. This is normally after storms during the winter months.

However, fossils can also be found in the rocks and boulders on the foreshore. There isn't many of these along the foreshore as the sea comes so high that any boulders get moved out to sea.
