Enjoy Azure Waters in Brixham

Enjoy the azure waters of Brixham during your family vacation in the south of Devon. Your dog-friendly holidays in Brixham will not be complete without exploring some of the beaches along the stunning coastline of the English Riviera. Stay at the dog-friendly Brixham holiday cottages so you can have easy access to all the major tourist destinations.

Shoalstone Beach and much more

Shoalstone Beach is a sand and shingle beach that is a perfect location for family picnics and fond vacation memories. The crystal-clear waters are very inviting while the sand has gentle shelving, perfect for shallow swimming and building sandcastles. It boasts of having the only outdoor sea pool in the area, where you can sunbathe or read a good book. Pets are allowed here so there is nothing to worry about during your dog-friendly holidays in Brixham except for how to enjoy to the fullest. If you did not bring your car during your family vacation, just take Bus No. 17 from the dog-friendly Brixham holiday cottages.

Shoalstone Beach has fascinating rock pools you might want to explore. Safety of visitors are highly valued here so there are plenty of lifeguards at the pool, lifebuoys and warning flags all around, and patrol boats. Clean toilets are available during summer time. You can find cafes and restaurants here, disabled ramps, baby changing facilities, and amusement arcade nearby.
Just a stone’s throw away from Shoalstone Beach is the Elberry Cove. If you are a water sports fanatic, you would love it here. Enjoy water skiing, kayaking, scuba diving, wake boarding, kite surfing, and other thrilling water sports. Or walk along the South West coastal path to appreciate the rich bounty of nature.

If you are up to more fun and exploration, you can explore the larger sandy beaches in Torquay. Although a little farther from Brixham, these beaches have become crowd favourites because of its golden sand, clean surroundings, and excellent facilities. The Watcombe beach, Meadfoot beach or Torre Abbey Sands are just some of the popular destinations for both locals and tourists. Scheduling a visit here during your dog-friendly holidays in Brixham is an excellent idea. Here, you cannot only go swimming, get a good tan, or play beach volleyball but also visit cafes along the promenade and enjoy soothing water-based activities. Plan a boating or fishing trip with your family and get to know them better during this journey. You can also treat your spouse to a romantic cruise and explore nearby isles. You can go shopping at quaint stores that sell local products and unique souvenirs. Or just hire a sun lounger and sip some fine wine while watching all the vibrant activities around you. Since it is always crowded especially during peak seasons, go here early to find a good spot. It would be no surprise if you return late at the dog-friendly Brixham holiday cottages.
