Watcombe

Watcombe Beach lies at the northern end of the Torbay conurbation between St. Marychurch and Maidencombe on the South Devon coast.

Looking out into Babbacombe Bay and sheltered by Watcombe Head, this east facing beach of sand and coarse shingle is popular with families despite access being via a steep walk through woodland.

Please do not sit directly below the cliffs on Watcombe Beach. Due to the underlying geology the cliffs are unstable and rock falls are possible.

Facilities include a small café and toilets. Dogs are permitted all year round.

There are some fine walks along the South West Coast Path north to Maidencombe, Shaldon and Teignmouth or south to St. Marychurch and the varied delights of Torquay.
