Broadsands Beach

In between Paignton and Brixham is Broadsands on the English Riviera, South Devon’s beautiful bay. With a long sandy beach the whole family can enjoy, you can make sandcastles for a couple of hours and then paddle in the calm sea. There’s also a large area of parkland directly behind the beach, so if you’ve brought a football with you, this is a great place to have a kick around.

The nearby car park has full access to the promenade, so everyone can enjoy the Broadsands experience. The promenade is brightened by a row of colourful beach huts that you can hire out for the day.

The South West Coastal Path

While you’re at Broadsands why not explore the South West Coastal Path? It’s the longest coastal path in the UK, and stretches along the length of the English Riviera. From Broadsands there is an easy circular route that takes in Churston Cove and Elberry Cove, where you’ll see the beautiful South Devon countryside, spectacular coastal scenery and plenty of wildlife.
