Hastings cliffs
They are not so popular as located just 20 miles away Seven Sisters and Beachy Head, but definitely worth seeing. Climbing 100m above the sea, sandy-coloured, covered with intense vegetation, call to mind pictures from tropical forests. Different flora, different geological structure, and less people:) More information: www.discoveringfossils.co.uk/hastings_fossils.htm" rel="noreferrer nofollow www.discoveringfossils.co.uk/hastings_fossils.htm www.hastings.gov.uk/community_living/places_spaces_facilities/allotments_parks_beaches/countryside/hcp_nature/" rel="noreferrer nofollow www.hastings.gov.uk/community_living/places_spaces_facili...

Gathering
Sunny late afternoon in Hastings. Low water is revealing the bottom of the sea and uncovering little sea monsters making them vulnerable for being gathered by people;) Just 1.5hrs from Charing Cross and 2hrs from London Victoria by train. www.walkingclub.org.uk/book_3/walk_169/index.shtml" rel="nofollow www.walkingclub.org.uk/book_3/walk_169/index.shtml
