\nI like to think of myself as Devon’s biggest tourism advocate in the blogging world. In terms of beaches, Devon is often overshadowed by its neighbour Cornwall but I strongly believe that Devon has a lot of beautiful beaches to offer. So, here’s 5 reasons to visit the little seaside town of Exmouth. <\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nIce cream<\/b>
\nLike any good Devonshire seaside resort, there is a huge selection of ice cream shops and parlours. And one of the best things about getting ice cream in Devon is that they top it with clotted cream which is actually the most delicious thing ever. Calories don’t exist in Devon, by the way. <\/div>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\nThe town<\/b>
\nThere’s a small town full of local shops. Shops like these are definitely a dying breed which is a shame because wandering around little green grocers and cheese shops is one of my favourite things to do. And they have a Roley’s Fudge Shop which, for anyone who hasn’t experienced this Charlie’s Chocolate Factory of a shop, is a chain of fudge shops where they make the most crumbly, creamy fudge ever in all different flavours.   <\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nSand <\/b>
\nSand is a rare sight on a beach in Devon. We have plenty of pebble beaches but not so many sandy beaches so Exmouth is definitely a good visit for anyone looking to make a sandcastle or sunbathe on a surface that is slightly less pebbly. But, in defence of pebble beaches, they are perfect for skimming stones and searching for fossils – especially on the Jurassic Coast.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\nThe park <\/b>
\nExmouth has a lovely, big park full of insta worthy flower installations
\n – I’m all about getting that perfect insta shot. They even have live
\nmusic fairly regularly and different family fun days throughout the
\nsummer.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nAccessibility <\/b>
\nProbably the least exciting reason but one of the most important – this town is super accessible. It’s only a 20 minutes car ride from Devon’s capital city of Exeter and has a direct train straight from Exeter to Exmouth. It’s the perfect locations for a little Sunday afternoon trip on a long weekend break in Exeter.<\/div>\n
