X53
service (via Lyme Regis)
The award winning CoastLINXX53 is the perfect
way to visit many of the main attractions along the
Jurassic Coast. Why not use the bus to walk a section of the Coast Path, visit the seaside at Weymouth, Seaton, or Lyme Regis, or go shopping at Exeter or Poole. Alternatively just sit back and enjoy the views from the top
deck. A day out on CoastLINX53
costs so little - a FirstDay Explorer ticket offers unlimited travel
along the route for a day and can also be used on all First bus
services in Hampshire & Dorset.
