As you would expect from a town that hosts an annual regatta, boating and sailing are hugely popular activities. Boats still fish from Port Royal, where the town has its own 24 hour rescue boat in case of emergencies. Port Royal is one of the best places for fishing in Sidmouth, so avid anglers will want to head there.
Sailors should get in touch with Sidmouth Sailing Club who host the regular regatta races and offers everything from tuition to sailing sessions for a variety of ages. Click here to find out more information on boating, sailing and other watersports available in Sidmouth and the surrounding area.
Just because you’re on holiday doesn’t mean you have to miss out on a trip around the greens. Sidmouth Golf Club is a real jewel in Devon’s golfing crown. Located high above the town centre and with incredible views over Sidmouth, Sidmouth Golf Club can be found on the wooded western slopes of the Sid Valley. The course enjoys unblemished sea views and the clubhouse provides a panoramic view across Devon and the Lyme Bay.
