Torquay’s waterfront is the focus of life in the town. Here you’ll find the palm-lined promenade, seafront gardens, a lively harbour and an international marina.
There is an abundance of pavement cafes, pubs, restaurants and nightlife, good shopping and a host of family attractions. Yet within minutes of the town centre there are beautiful beaches easily accessible by foot, road or water.
In addition, there are shows, music and performances to choose from along this golden stretch of Britain’s coast which all combine to leave the visitor with the warm memory of a great holiday experience.
The heart of the town is the harbour which is lined with cafes, bars and restaurants; a great place to watch the world go by. From here, take a pleasant stroll along the marina with the area’s trademark palm trees, or hop on a boat for a cruise across the bay or round to Dartmouth.
Torquay is host to many more attractions, including Babbacombe Model Village, Kents Cavern, Torquay HiFlyer. Or take a trip back through time to Cockington village where thatched roofs prevail and watch a blacksmith working in the 14th century forge.
