    Torquay to Brixham

    June 14, 2023 in England ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C

    It's an early 22 bus into Torquay to continue the walk; it's going to be hot today.

    We start at Beacon Quay and cross the Millenium Bridge to follow the coastal path along Torquay seafront. We pass Corbyn Head, Livermead Head, and walk along the promenade past Paignton Pier. We pass the small harbour and descend Roundham Head to Goodrington Sands and across to Broadsand Beach. We go round the headland, through Marriage Woods, and then Elberry Cove and Fishcombe Beach to reach Brixham.

    We pass the Freshwater Fish Market and walk around the harbour and marina to Brixham Breakwater (1,000 feet long) to end this stage of the South West Coastal Path.

    On arrival in Brixham, we booked onto the Western Lady ferry to cross the bay back to Torquay; £5 each well spent!    Read more
