Teignmouth
Things to Do
Teignmouth
The hometown of the rock band Muse, Teignmouth is a short drive to the north of the English Riviera.
A traditional seaside resort in the heart of Devon
Teignmouth has been popular with tourists since Victorian times and you can see the evidence in the architecture of the town, particularly Teignmouth Pier, which was built in the mid-18th Century.
The Den
Close to the town centre is a lawned area by the seafront known as The Den. It is here where most tourists are usually found, at least when they’re not lazing around on the beach or splashing in the warm and gentle waters. The Den occasionally hosts live music and in 2009 Muse played an open-air homecoming concert here. There’s also an award-winning water play park for the kids, popular with locals and visitors alike.
The town’s working harbour is also a hub of activity, where you can hire a boat and try your hand at some sea fishing. Alternatively, if you’re looking for a bit of peace and quiet, take a ferry ride across the river mouth to Shaldon and take a walk along the estuary, where you can often find locals collecting mussels and other shellfish at low tide. You can also check out Shaldon Zoo – it’s a small and really interesting little zoo where you can get close to rare and endangered species.
Why not make a trip to Teignmouth a part of your visit to the English Riviera, South Devon’s beautiful bay?
