At Wight Coast Fossils we offer award winning public and private guided fossil hunting experiences on the stunning UNESCO biosphere coastline of the Isle of Wight! One of the best places on Earth to come face to face with the ancient past, the Isle of Wight has a rich fossil record spanning 130 million years, from the dinosaurs of the Early Cretaceous to the freezing tundra of the last Ice Age!
Our fossil walks have something for fossil hunters of all ages, abilities and interests! Hunt for fossils at stunning sites around the island with our guides, explore the ancient story of the Isle of Wight and discover your own piece of our world-famous prehistoric past!
