Geopark Story

Featured

  1. Ice Age English Riviera
    Home to collections and sites of international importance in the story of human evolution and migration, the tale behind Ice Age English Riviera is a spectacular story of extremes.
  2. The Golden Age
    The modern character of the English Riviera has been shaped, in large part, by our history as seaside resorts. Tourists began visiting in large numbers in the 19th century, starting an explosion of development and a ‘golden age’ of prosperity that lasted until the Second World War.
  3. Our Unique Literary & Cultural Heritage
    The English Riviera is well known as a top UK holiday resort due to its spectacular coastline, however there is also a unique literary and cultural heritage, and plenty of hidden gems around the Bay that provide an insight into the past.
  4. Agatha Christie on the English Riviera
    Dame Agatha Christie, known throughout the world as the ‘Queen of Crime’, is a literary genius, was born in Torquay and remained on the English Riviera for much of her life.
  5. Brixham Trawlers
    The English Riviera is well known as a top UK holiday resort due to its spectacular coastline, however there is also a unique literary and cultural heritage, and plenty of hidden gems around the Bay that provide an insight into the past.
  6. England's Seafood Coast
    Named England’s Seafood Coast for good reason, the English Riviera is home to the UK’s finest seafood and the world-famous Brixham Fish Market, where some of the nation’s best chefs source their seafood.
  7. Explore The English Riviera
    The English Riviera is an ideal base for exploring the beautiful coast and countryside of South Devon including Torbay, Torquay, Paignton and Brixham.
