Visiting Devon

Why visit Devon

Devon offers a diverse escape for every traveler, from adventurous explorers to those seeking coastal calm. You can spend days on its picturesque sandy beaches like Woolacombe Beach or Croyde Bay, perfect for families and surfers. Venture into the wild moorland of Dartmoor National Park, home to granite tors and wild ponies, or explore Exmoor National Park for coastal walks and stargazing. History lovers will find rich maritime heritage in Plymouth or explore historic architecture in Dartmouth. The eastern coastline is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Jurassic Coast, inviting fossil hunting. Whether hiking, beachgoing, or enjoying charming towns, Devon provides varied outdoor experiences.

Plan your visit

To experience Devon fully, a visit of 5 to 7 days is ideal. The best times are late spring (May-June) or early autumn (September-October) for pleasant weather and fewer crowds. July and August are peak season. Exeter Airport (EXT) is the nearest gateway, with flights from major UK cities. A car is recommended for flexibility, especially to reach remote areas. Consider combining your trip with neighboring Cornwall or extending along the Jurassic Coast. Set price alerts for flights to Exeter to find the best deals.
