  • Exmouth is home to a functioning harbour, once a small fishing dock, now mostly used by pleasure craft and the occasional trawler.

[edit][add listing] Do

  • Exmouth is a popular tourist destination due to its long, sandy beach.
  • A modest range of tourist attractions are open during the summer season, including a small boating lake, miniature golf course, model railway and amusements arcade.
  • Swimming is forbidden on a short stretch of the beach due to fast tidal currents.
  • Exmouth is one end of a long and pleasant coastal walk along the cliffs. The walk contains steep segments, though, and includes rough ground and stiles, so is not recommended for the frail.

[edit][add listing] Eat

  • The Grove's pub food is cheap and far from impressive, but the beer garden, across the road from the seawall, is pleasant enough on a warm evening.
