What's on

In the Bay

Featured

  1. Our unique micro-climate in the English Riviera means springtime comes earlier than in other parts of the country.
  2. During summer, the English Riviera comes alive with visitors flocking to enjoy the soft sand and gentle lapping waves at our glorious beaches.
  3. As summer holiday memories start to fade and the first signs of autumn show, the English Riviera is all about warm and cosy settings, bracing walks and quality time spent with your loved ones.
  4. As the crowds disappear, get outdoors and enjoy our almost uninhabited award-winning beaches, magical woodland walks, rugged cliffs and striking coastline.

With 22 miles of

coastline and 20 beaches on offer, 

there's something 

for everyone!
