Dawlish
  • The main beach is a crescent of pebbles, steeply shelving towards the sea and overlooked by high red cliffs at the western edge. It is famous for its fat round muffin-shaped pebbles.

  • This sheltered secluded beach of soft sand and shingle provides safe bathing, although it is not patrolled by lifeguards.

  • The sandy beach is quiet and relaxing, facing the early morning sun and possibly the best beach in the area. There is easy access for the disabled and dogs are allowed in restricted areas.

  • This beach is smooth and sandy with dunes further inland. It is located on the west side of the Exe Estuary. The sea water is clear and the current is normally gentle.

  • There are two miles of flat, golden sand and many fascinating rock pools for the family to explore. Some stretches are dangerous for swimming and the advice on the signs should always be followed.
