As part of the Jurassic Coast, Charmouth is an ideal place to see prehistoric creatures preserved in rock - and if you find them loose on the beach you can take them away too. Visit the Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre on the coast (open 10am to 4pm) to discover what you're looking for - then go out and become the first human to meet a particular animal since it died millions of years ago!
