Renowned for its glorious seafront, Exmouth is Devon's oldest seaside resort and part of Devon's UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Jurassic Coast.

Here, we embark on a cruise along the stunning coast, which dates back 250 million years. Famed for the deep red colour of the cliffs, our cruise takes in the oldest section of the UNESCO World Heritage Site and will sail close enough to give you an incredibly detailed view of the rocks, before sailing further out to offer you a panoramic view of the coast in all its glory.
