Summer Breaks

You don’t need to travel abroad to find sun, sand and surf. It’s a lot less stressful and much easier on the pocket to visit the English Riviera, South Devon’s beautiful bay. Take a break here in the summer months and you’ll find golden stretches of sand, a great choice of places to eat and drink, and plenty to see and do. It’s like the Med, but a whole lot closer to home.

Life’s a Beach

If your idea of summer heaven is relaxing on a beach, then the English Riviera is for you. Many of our stunning beaches hold prestigious Blue Flag status in recognition of their cleanliness and safety. With gently sloping shores, a treasure trove of rock pools and regular lifeguard patrols, these beaches are perfect for families with young children. Check out our Top 10 Beaches to find the perfect spot for you. And if you’re looking for some watersports action you’ll find that too. Watch the professionals powerboat racing in the Bay. Or have a go at water skiing, jet skiing and fly boarding to name a few.

Make our UNESCO Global Geopark your holiday playground

The English Riviera has designated UNESCO Global Geopark status in recognition of its diverse geological importance. The designated UNESCO Global Geopark status stretches right across the entire 22-mile coastline of the English Riviera. There are many points of interest within the Bay and our designation status is currently based upon the international importance of 32 individual geo sites, covering a story of three geological time periods, all found within a compact area. The summer allows holidaymakers the chance to really get to explore the countryside, beaches and all it has to offer.

Get off the Beaten Track

Discover some of our hidden gems this summer. Whilst many people know about our long sandy beaches, the English Riviera is home to many secluded coves, perfect for getting off the beaten track. Discover native wildlife, learn about historical importance and take in the fresh sea air. We’ve put together our Top 10 Coastal Walks so you can take in the breath-taking sea views and explore the wilderness of Devon’s Beautiful Bay. The seaside isn’t the only Naturally Inspiring landscape we have. Devon’s Beautiful Bay is also home to several mature woodlands, housing an array of wildlife and providing visitors and locals with wonderful woodland walks and tropical lakes.

Relax and Recuperate

Feeling the need to unwind? The English Riviera is a safe haven away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Why not indulge in a luxury spa break, discover unique handmade products, and enjoy fresh seafood on Devon’s Beautiful Bay. Head to one of the Bay’s top hotels or exclusive health spas in Torquay, Paignton or Brixham for a luxury spa day or relaxing wellness break to awaken all the senses and recharge the batteries. We have many fine dining restaurants too, that have been distinguished with prestigious Devon and South West awards and you can be sure to find a delicious menu and excellent service when you dine out on the English Riviera.

Enjoy a spot of Artisan Shopping with some incredible independent shops producing unique handmade goods, inspired by the local landscapes. Head to Cockington Court Craft Centre for a unique experience and a memory that will stay with you for a long time.

The English Riviera is a superb place for golfers of all abilities, with two world-class golf clubs, an extensive driving range, multiple pitch and putt courses and numerous crazy golf courses to please serious golfers and the whole family too. South Devon’s sheltered microclimate mean that mild winters and calm winds can be expected, making perfect conditions for a day out golfing, whilst enjoying the fresh sea air.
