Brixham for the day

Brixham, Devon

Generations have been enchanted by the charm and romance of Brixham, a colourful and bustling fishing port at the southern end of Torbay.

The hilly town is built around the central harbour area, which remains the lifeblood of this quaint historic town. Vibrant fishermen's cottages gaze out across the port and the fishing trawlers below. Brixham remains one of the UK's busiest fishing ports and every year, over ten thousand tonnes of fresh fish and crustaceans land on the quays.

There are plenty of cafes and unusual shops to be discovered as you explore the charming streets and alleys, while there is no end of traditional pubs willing to reward you with an ale or glass of wine at the end of a busy day sightseeing. Of course, the best way to experience the allure of Brixham is to take one of the many boat trips and enjoy the commentary (extra charges apply) - with the added charm of a Devonian accent. You'll learn plenty about the rich heritage and history of the area, whilst also returning with amazing photographs of your nautical adventures.

Brixham is blessed with some of the most stunning coastal walks in the UK.
