Shaldon Beach

Shaldon Beach can really be said to be the real scene of ‘Messing about on the River !! “ It is a hive of beach activity- Sailing, fishing, swimming, canoeing, rowing and people just messing about in and out of the water. Why not join in the many things that take place?-the Shaldon Regatta, the Water Carnival to name but a few.?

At high tide, huge container ships enter the narrow estuary mouth to dock at the Port of Teignmouth - or watch the local rowers compete against each other or be out in training. Take a trip to Teignmouth from Shaldon beach on the oldest passenger ferry in England.

Shaldon estuary beach is a mix of shingle and reddish sand , full of shells and beach treasure. The beach gently slopes towards the mouth of the estuary.??

Near by Shaldon beach are many local shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants.
