Places to visit

Torbay consists of Brixham, Paignton Torquay towns. A nice day out is to park for free near Paignton Leisure centre, and cross the road to the beach and follow the coastal path to Brixham. Get fish and chips and sit by the harbour. Get your tickets for the ferry from Brixham to Torquay (£2.50 single or £3 return), then catch the bus back to Paignton (£3). The ferry won’t run in bad weather, so best check before you leave home.

Pretty quaint village accessible by ferry or car. Free parking near the church. Local pub and cafe. Certain times of the year the ferry is available to take you to Greenaway (Agatha Christie’s Home) Ideal for crab fishing for children off the jetty. Dittisham regatta is held in August, and usually the first Sunday in the month there is a local band and BBQ on the beach. Or catch the ferry from Dartmouth for a round trip.
