Devon and Exmoor
North
Devon
North Devon has some of the finest coastal
scenery in the UK - from the deep wooded valleys
or 'combes' that typify the Exmoor
coastline to the large golden sandy beaches
at Woolacombe, Croyde and Saunton. The new UNESCO
World Biosphere status is centred on Braunton
Burrows a unique area of over 1000 acres of
sand dunes populated by rare plants and stretching
out along the Taw/Torridge estuary into marshes
and the medieval Great Field.
North Devon beaches make the area popular
not only for family holidays but also for thousands
of watersports
enthusiasts who come all year round for surfing,
kite-surfing, wind-surfing, kayaking and beach
activities such as kite-buggying and sand yachting.
The South West Coast Path and Exmoor National
Park also make walking
in North Devon an opportunity not to be
ignored, with some of Devon’s finest coast
and countryside. The Tarka Trail is centred
on Barnstaple and provides off road opportunities
for walking, cycling and one of the most scenic
train rides in the region down to Exeter.
