Great excitement at Durlston Country Park this morning, as visitors enjoying their Seventhwave Swanage coffees on the Castle Terrace spotted a pod of between six and eight Bottlenose Dolphins in Durlston Bay, as well as a bonus flyover from one of our resident Peregrine Falcons!

To learn more about Durlston's amazing wildlife, visit the link in comments.

We had a lovely Walk and Talk from Ocean Bay to Sheps Hollow this week, and you can still join us on Wednesday 6th May.
Meeting at 9.30am, you’ll learn about Cliff Behaviour Units; sections of coastline with similar characteristics that help us understand erosion, instability, and how we plan for adaptation as part of the Future Coast North Swanage project.
Join Elaine from Dorset Coast Forum and Dave Picksley from the Environment Agency for a sunny stroll (hopefully!).
🔗 Book your place using the QR code or the online form:

Booking helps us keep you updated as needed in the lead-up to the event.
We’d love to see you there!
