Fossil Safari - Staithes Special with The Rock Showman

A challenging itinerary aimed at the progressing intermediate enthusiast or those who want a longer tour in a more exposed location. A great itinerary for rarer ammonites, jet, pyrite fossils and marine reptile bones. SUITABILITY RATING - NOT ideal for younger families (kids under8), less mobile adults, or for those nervous around clifftops. Anyone with mobility issues should contact us first. START LOCATION - Benches above harbour, just past The Cod and Lobster entrance, Staithes PARKING - Is not available at the Harbour bottom. Closest P&D car park is Bank Top car park, 10 minutes walk. This is always busy in peak season and at weekends. Allow extra time at end of tour when paying for parking (5 hours recommended) - its a long way back up when ice cream beckons Level: Advancing, Intermediate Age range: Over 8 Description: The 3-4 hour tour starting from the Cod & Lobster and heads ESE towards Runswick Bay. It combines rock platform and beach deposits at the water's edge. You must be prepared for offroad walking in potentially wet, slippery conditions, good walking boots and waterproofs are a must. Bring water, snacks or a meal as there are no facilities once the tour has begun. Once at beach level your guide will help you find some interesting fossils and explain how to hunt for the local specialities, golden pyrite fossils and Whitby Jet. Terrain: Ranges from pebbly beach to muddy paths, shale scree, steep steps, slippery rock platform and cobbled beach.
