Lyme Regis
The pretty fishing harbour of Lyme Regis, instantly recognised by it’s eye-catching curved Cobb wall, resides 7 miles west of West Bay and takes around 30 mins to reach in the RIBs.
Steeped in history from Mary Annings and her early fossil finds to Meryl Streep in The French Lieutenants Woman, Lyme Regis has a individual charm of its own.
With plenty of excellent places to eat and drink, many of which over look the harbour and the bay, Lyme Regis also offers safe bathing from its sheltered beaches and a host of interesting shops and cafes which are only a short walk along the Marine Parade, a traffic free road linking the harbour with the town.
