What is recorded here
Sandy Bay consists primarily of Cretaceous-age limestone and chalk, formed from marine sediments deposited around 100 to 66 million years ago. The bay is notable for its well-exposed coastal cliffs, which provide a classic example of Mesozoic-era sedimentary rock formations in southern England.
