If your holidaying in North Devon to enjoy the great outdoors then exploring the vast moors and wooded valleys of Exmoor is a must.

The beautiful and ancient Valley of Rocks and Watersmeet are quite literally on the doorstep of Lynton & Lynmouth and offer miles of walks and cascading rivers to walk and explore.

Want to see a little more? How about exploring the moors on horseback, by bike or a jeep safari? It’s an incredible way to see the very best of Exmoor’s landscape and unique wildlife, including wild ponies, red deer, rare butterflies and our elusive otters.

If you like excitement and real adrenalin thrills Exmoor gives you the chance to try something a little more adventurous!

When the right conditions prevail Lynmouth Bay provides excellent surfing for the experienced surfer whilst the sandy beaches at Croyde and Woolacombe are popular for the professional and beginner alike. Sea kayaking and paddleboarding is also a popular sport in Porlock and Combe Martin along the stunning Exmoor coast. During Autumn and Winter, the East Lyn River provides excellent and challenging conditions for canoeing. Whitewater kayakers frequently run this river when seeking the thrill of a Grade 4 paddle.
