Shaldon, situated between Torquay and Teignmouth, nestles on the estuary where the river Teign meets the sea.

The 7-mile coastal drive from Torquay is very pretty, with countryside to the left and magnificent sea views on the right.

It is reminiscent of an old English village with a green where bowls are still played.

The Clock Tower on the green is dedicated to the memory of local men who died during the 2 World Wars.

On Wednesdays in the holiday season Shaldon goes back to Georgian times and holds a local gift market. All the locals wear Georgian outfits and entertain holidaymakers in all manners of ways. As with all local events here, everyone is made to feel welcome.

The Ferry to Teignmouth leaves from Shaldon beach frequently and entry is made by "walking the plank!" The ferry operates 7 days a week until quite late in the evening in the summer months and 5 days a week in the winter.

At the end of August the annual 5 day Regatta is held with special swimming and rowing events for all, including visitors. This is one of the busiest events of the year with revelries going on late into the night.
