🛥️ Excursion 1 to Plymouth – Britain’s Ocean City 🌊

Enjoy a leisurely day in Plymouth, a vibrant waterfront city rich in history and character. Known as Britain’s Ocean City, Plymouth offers plenty to see and do at your own pace.

Take a stroll along the famous Plymouth Hoe ⛵, where Sir Francis Drake once played bowls, and soak up the sweeping sea views across the Sound. Wander through the historic Barbican and Sutton Harbour 🏘️, with their cobbled streets, independent shops, and picturesque quayside atmosphere.

There’s also time to browse the city’s modern shopping districts 🛍️, admire the public art and monuments dotted around the waterfront, or simply relax by the harbour watching the boats drift by. With a perfect mix of heritage, scenery, and free attractions, Plymouth makes for a memorable day out.

🌊 Excursion 2 – Exmouth, Sidmouth & Plymouth 🏖️

Your day begins in Exmouth, often called the gateway to the Jurassic Coast 🦖. Here you can relax on the wide sandy beach, take a refreshing stroll along the shoreline, or wander the promenade while soaking up the fresh sea air.

Next, we travel to the charming resort of Sidmouth 🌺, famous for its elegant promenade and sweeping views of the striking red cliffs. Enjoy time at leisure by the beach, browse the seafront, or, if you wish, take the opportunity to visit the nearby Donkey Sanctuary 🫏 – a much-loved free attraction that rescues and cares for hundreds of donkeys.
