Autumnal Equinox: In 2024 the autumnal equinox occurs on
22 September at 12.44pm GMT (1.44pm BST).
The Earth is tilted on its axis. This means that the Sun illuminates the
northern or southern hemisphere more depending on where the Earth is along its
orbit.
However, at two points in the year the Sun will illuminate the northern and
southern hemispheres equally. These are known as the equinoxes.
The Autumn Equinox is the first day of the autumn season and occurs
 when the sun passes the equator moving from the northern to the southern hemisphere. The sun is directly overhead at the equator and day
and night are of approximately equal lengths. At equinox, the Sun rises everywhere on Earth (except the Poles) at about 6am in the morning and sets at about 6pm in the evening (though this can vary a little when time zones and daylight saving etc are taken into account).

Mapping the Undercliffs Nature Reserve
23 July - 13 September 2024
A refreshing new way for us to look at the Dorset
and Devon coastal paths is offered in this fascinating collection
of images and strip maps hand-drawn by nature journaling artist
Alex Boon, who spent a year documenting the pathways, wildlife and
landmarks of the Undercliffs Nature Reserve.
Be inspired to replicate Alex’s journeys with your own coastal
adventure.

WALKS and Tours |
Do take advice about safe tide times before
 setting off for more than fifteen minutes hike, without a guide, along our beautiful beaches: - what appears to be an easy bit of ground to scramble over is more likely to be a treacherous mud slide - don't take a chance! |
FOSSIL WALKS |
 Get Fossiling on the
Jurassic Coast! Join one of Lyme Regis Museum’s famous fossil walks
along this historic stretch of Dorset coast with Geologist Paddy Howe
and Marine Biologist Chris Andrew. Some families return time and again
to search with Paddy and Chris among the sand and rocks for fossils that
have been washed down onto the beach after 190 million years. For adults
and children alike, it’s an unforgettable experience.
Each walk is limited to 15 people per guide. Start times for walks vary according to the tides and take about three hours. |
