Located just down a few steps from Pebble Cottage Overgang,Brixham offers an ideal blend of coastal beauty, maritime heritage, and activities to suit every type of visitor.

A Glimpse Into Brixham’s History

Brixham has been a working fishing port for centuries, and its roots can be traced back to Saxon times. It played a pivotal role in British history as the landing point for William of Orange in 1688, marking the start of the Glorious Revolution. Even today, Brixham remains one of the busiest fishing ports in England, giving visitors a chance to explore its deep maritime heritage.

Top Things to Do in Brixham

1. Brixham Harbour
A stroll around the picturesque harbour is a must. Watch the boats come in, grab an ice cream, or try the fresh seafood from one of the local vendors. You can also see the famous replica of Sir Francis Drake’s ship, the Golden Hind, which offers a fun experience for both kids and adults.

2. Berry Head National Nature Reserve
If you enjoy stunning coastal views and wildlife, head to Berry Head. The cliffs here are home to rare birds and offer sweeping views of the sea. The old Napoleonic forts are a fascinating historical highlight, and there’s even a café where you can relax and soak in the scenery.

3. Brixham Fish Market Tours
For an authentic taste of Brixham’s working port, join a guided early morning tour of the famous fish market. Watch the hustle and bustle as the catch is auctioned off to buyers. It’s an experience that showcases Brixham’s deep ties to the sea.

4. Beaches and Coves
Brixham is surrounded by beautiful beaches, perfect for summer visits or peaceful winter walks. Breakwater Beach is ideal for swimming, while Fishcombe Cove offers more seclusion and a great spot for a picnic or snorkeling.
