Features

Abereiddy can yield a wide range of fossils, but finding the right zones can be difficult. There is also a small quarry on the hill side, where trilobites and molluscs can be found. Graptolites have also been found in coastal sections but are rare.

Access

Abereiddy is easy to find, but the actual location where fossils can be found is quite hard to locate as it is only a small fault. Parking is at the beach.
