For the perfect nature and activity-oriented getaway, visit Exmouth

A popular resort town, located in southern Devon, at the mouth of the River Exe, Exmouth is the perfect getaway for the nature lover or the fun loving alike. Boasting an old fashioned seaside promenade, and architecture that is mostly of Edwardian, Victorian, or Georgian inspiration. This gives Exmouth a very quiet and tranquil feel as though it belongs somewhere back in time. But don´t let looks fool you, Exmouth is a completely modern town that offers many things to do, no matter where your interests lie.

For the naturalist, the Exmouth Local Nature Reserve, located on the River Exe, is a great destination. This is an estuary reserve that has a huge mud bank, referred to as "Cockle Sand", and this is a site of great importance to a good number of migratory birds. From those with an academic interest, or just the occasional birdwatcher, this reserve is a great place to come see the wonders of winged life from rare migratory birds to wading birds of many different varieties. As the winter home for a good number of ducks, geese, and other "wading birds", this is a great place to go for birdwatching in winter.

There are a good number of walking groups that you can join to ramble your way around the beautiful natural landscapes of Exmouth. This allows you the time to take in these wonderful landscapes in all their glory and see beautiful natural wildlife in the pristine state it is meant to be enjoyed in.

For the outdoor, particularly the outdoor water enthusiast, Exmouth is the destination that you´ve been dreaming of. With pleasant climes and huge stretches of immaculate beaches, the water sport enthusiast is going to find a lot of fun activities to take part in. From windsurfing to kitesurfing, the location, climate, and conditions make Exmouth perfectly suited to a large number of different water sport activities.

So whether enjoying the natural landscapes and wildlife is more your pace and idea of a good vacation, or you want an action packed trip full to the brim with opportunities to partake in a variety of different water sports, Exmouth is a great choice for your next vacation.
