Rare fossil finds have been made at Blue Beach. Make a great start with a visit to the museum and then start your own exploration.
The rocks exposed at Blue Beach contain many fossils. In fact, there are so many fossils that it is almost impossible to put your foot down without stepping on a record of ancient, past life. Be sure to visit the nearby Fossil Museum to check out some of the discoveries that have been made on the beach. Approx 1hour 10 min drive
