East Portlemouth Beaches

Opposite the town of Salcombe on the eastern side of the estuary is a long sandy stretch skirting round the coast from East Portlemouth almost to the open sea. East Portlemouth beach, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), is next to the village. Less busy than the Salcombe beaches over the water, this is a great place to relax, build sandcastles and enjoy the sun all day long. Access is from the village itself or by ferry from Salcombe. Dogs welcome all year round.
There is also a Venus Cafe, serving organic and local food.
