The Jurassic Coast stretches 95 miles from Exmouth in Devon to Old Harry Rocks in Dorset — a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of England's most spectacular drives.
The Route
Exeter → Sidmouth → Seaton → Lyme Regis → Charmouth → Bridport → Weymouth → Swanage → Bournemouth
Around 130 miles end to end.
Charging En Route
The A35 and coastal routes have grown their EV coverage:
- Exeter — charge up here before heading east
- Axminster — some public charging
- Bridport — growing provision
- Weymouth — solid public charging
- Bournemouth — excellent charging at journey's end
Strategy: start with a full charge, top up at Weymouth, end at Bournemouth with plenty to spare.
