Have fun in North Devon this summer

Rockpool Rambles

Our Beach Rangers are now in place for the whole summer at Woolacombe.

Tractor Trailer rides to Morte Point

At a more sedate pace are the Tractor Trailer rides every Wednesday from Mortehoe out to Morte Point and Bull Point to see the seals. This is a beautiful drive. We usually see grey seals in the small coves below, also there’s a chance to see peregrine falcons and kestrels as well as fantastic displays of wildflowers. It is a great place to see some amazing wildlife but also learn about the dark past of wrecking on Morte Point.
