Important safety notice: Cliff and rock falls at East Beach 

Important safety notice for East Beach: following recent cliff and rock falls along the coast between Sidmouth and Salcombe Mouth, we urge you to stay well back from the edges when using the coast path along the cliff top, and away from the undercliff when on the beaches. Please take heed of safety signs on site – these cliffs are unstable and liable to rock falls at any time.

Reaching the frogstone after struggling up the coast path steps, brings the reward of wonderful views down the coast

Walking 

There are a number of walks that start from Salcombe Hill car park, just outside of Sidmouth, including an accessible circular route which offers views in both directions along the historic Jurassic coastline.

We need your support 

For 125 years, people like you have helped us protect some of the UK's best-loved places. Everyone needs nature, beauty and green spaces now more than ever. But our income has dropped sharply due to the coronavirus crisis, and our essential conservation work is at risk. Please give what you can to help us look after these places, so people and nature can thrive.
