Coastal walking in South Devon offers a stunning mix of rugged clifftops, peaceful estuaries, and golden beaches along the South West Coast Path. Walkers experience dramatic views of the English Channel, charming fishing villages, and rich maritime heritage across the protected National Landscape.
The terrain shifts constantly as the path dips into hidden coves like Soar Mill Cove and rises over exposed headlands such as Bolt Head and Start Point. Walkers cross quiet river creeks and wide bays. Wildflowers bloom on the clifftops in spring and summer, and seabirds nest along the rocky ledges.
