Exmouth & Jurassic coast cruise with cream tea

INCLUDED Visitor DestinationExmouth is one of the oldest and most picturesque seaside towns in Devon and a joy to visit at any time of the year. This relatively flat, vibrant town offers plenty of walking, a buzzing harbour as well as plenty of local shops and restaurants for you to browse and maybe try a local seafood treat. The town is the gateway to the World Heritage Jurassic Coast and has two miles of sandy beach for you to enjoy. There’s no better way to see England’s only natural UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Jurassic Coast, than from the water. Join your circular cruise at Exmouth Marina and sail along the oldest section of the Site, from the the Triassic Era. Sit back and relax as you sail through time with the most stunning views of this 185-million-year-old geological portrait. This cruise is the perfect way for friends or groups to see this World Heritage Site from its best perspective, and you’ll be served cream tea on board!

Totnes & Dartmouth

INCLUDED Visitor DestinationTotnes is a charming Devon town with a bustling main street and a regular market situated in the beautiful Dart Valley.  The town is surrounded by woodlands, grassy fields and riverside walks. It is built on a hill rising up from the lovely River Dart. The old warehouses on the wharf have been restored preserving the character making it an ideal spot to wander and explore the local traders and cafes.

You have to go a long way to find a town as pretty as Dartmouth. Overlooking one of the finest natural harbours in the UK, Dartmouth has a strong maritime heritage with the iconic Royal Naval College set on a hill overlooking the town. You will find a host of narrow lanes, stairways and corridors, and historical streets to explore. The town has fine restaurants, as well as arts, antiques and craft shops just about everywhere. The Greenway Ferry takes visitors across the river to the world famous home of Agatha Christie, who so loved this area. You are bound to fall in love with Dartmouth too!
