Breakwater Beach - Torbay

Opening Times

Open All Year
Breakwater Beach (01/01/2011 - 01/01/2015)

Close to the mouth of Brixham harbour is Breakwater Beach, one of the cleanest and safest beaches on the English Riviera, South Devon’s beautiful bay. Not only is it a Blue Flag beach, but it has a Quality Coast Award and has been recommended by the Good Beach Guide. There’s also disabled access with adjoining parking facilities, meaning everyone can enjoy it.
Breakwater Beach is a particular favourite for scuba diving. There are a number of dive schools throughout the area and with some of the warmest and calmest waters in the country, this is the place to learn to scuba and get your open water certificate. Expect to see rare seagrass beds, seahorses, fish and even the odd shipwreck.

With picturesque towns, excellent beaches, safe seas and a multitude of attractions, the English Riviera has something for everyone – and all at great value for money. For an authentic, affordable seaside holiday, take your family to the English Riviera. We promise you’ll be left with great memories to treasure forever.
