Oddicombe Beach

Red sand bay in a classic English resort

Trees cling to the russet red cliffs encircling Oddicombe Beach, a clear water cove that draws families and water sports enthusiasts.

Facilities at the Blue Flag beach include a cafe, shop, beach huts and kayak and padalo hire. It’s one of Torbay’s most popular beaches.

You can walk here via a steep road but it’s more fun to hop on the enchanting 1920s Babbacombe Cliff Railway to arrive in style.
