Budleigh Salterton Beach

About Budleigh Salterton Beach

Budleigh Salterton Beach is situated on the south coast of Devon, around 24 km (15 mi) south of Exeter. It’s a pebbled beach which, together with the cliffs that back it, forms part of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site. Fossil hunters may strike lucky here; although you’re not permitted to remove your finds from the beach as it’s classified as a Site of Special Scientific Interest!

The beach is also part of a stretch awarded the Quality Coast Award and the water is of acceptable quality. Activities popular with visitors include kayaking and canoeing, diving and snorkelling, fishing, swimming and wind surfing.
