What is recorded here
Fairy Cove is a small bay in Torbay, composed primarily of Jurassic limestone, formed around 150 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. The cove is notable for its scenic coastal setting and the presence of fossil-rich rock formations that provide insight into the region's ancient marine environment.
