Explore Swanage And Purbeck On The Jurassic Coast

Swanage lies at the eastern end of the Jurassic Coast and is one of the area 's most charming towns. It also makes a superb base from which to explore the wild wonders of the Isle of Purbeck.

We sat down with Garry Hayman, Hostel Manager of YHA Swanage, who gave us an insight into the building 's fascinating history, as well as his favourite circular walks in the region.

YHA Swanage are a Jurassic Coast Trust Business Partner, helping us to protect and educate people about the World Heritage Site. 2020 is YHA 's 90th anniversary, and they are celebrating by raising £250,000 to offer activity breaks to over 900 disadvantaged children. To help fundraise, Garry will be walking the whole Jurassic Coast in September.
