This stretch of coastline is home to a wide range of habitats. In turn, these support a very diverse fauna and flora, some of which are only found in a few other parts of the country. For example, Wembury is home to the bloody-eyed velvet swimming crab and the tompot blenny. Exposed at low water, the patches of sand, shingle and stranded seaweed provide feeding grounds for resident and migrant waders including curlew and bar-tailed godwit. The Wembury Marine Centre has interactive displays showing the amazing life you may see in the rockpools, as well as the beautiful plants and animals hidden from view beneath Devon's seas. Wembury is part of a European protected site because of the wonderful rockpools and marine life found there. It is a 'must do' experience!
