Fossil Beds
Bracklesham Bay contains clay sediments deposited 46 million years ago during the Eocene epoch. These clay beds are now being eroded resulting in significant quantities of fossilised shark and ray teeth being exposed. This simple Drift Dive will give you a chance to find some Fossils.
Typically a sandy bottom is best for finding the Fossils although there may be opportunities to see Hermit crabs and small marine life.
