The post 3 Must-Visit Beaches in Devon, UK appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>Around half an hour’s drive from the town of Barnstaple is the stunning Woolacombe Bay. Famed for its excellent surfing conditions, in the high summer season you will find this beach packed with surfers, swimmers, paddlers, and sunbathers alike. In the winter season, a walk along the beach is sure to be bracing but worth it. There are several car parks in the town of Woolacombe, as well as plenty of cafes and restaurants so you can refuel after your sea dip.
This beach combines beautiful sand dunes with gentle surf and a nearby wildlife sanctuary, for a great day out for the whole family. You can drive or take the train to Dawlish from Devon’s capital, Exeter. You will find plenty of sandy beaches, dunes to explore, and the estuary bird sanctuary tucked behind the dunes. As in Woolacombe, there are cafes and restaurants in Dawlish which will serve up a Devon cream tea (scones with cream and jam), or that British classic, fish and chips.
This beach is a little off the beaten track, and you will need to walk a small section of the South West Coast Path to reach it. The payoff, however, is that even in the high summer season this beach is emptier than many stretches of sand nearby. Do be aware that if you’re planning on swimming, there is no lifeguard nearby, so follow sensible precautions and don’t get in the water unless you feel confident in your swimming ability and knowledge. If you’re not swimming, there are still plenty of beach activities to do, including some rock pooling and sand castle building.

]]>Cambridge University dates back to the 12th century. Its various colleges, which are dotted around the city, include examples of the earliest patterned brickwork in England. One of the most remarkable university buildings is King’s College Chapel, renowned for its acoustics and interior.
This lovely river flows through Cambridge into the Great Ouse and offers some incredible views. You can have a picnic on the riverbank or take one of the famous punts dotting the water.
The Fitzwilliam boasts a brilliantly diverse collection, including Greek, Roman, and Egyptian antiquities, as well as works by Turner, Hogarth, Van Duck, and Rubens, among countless others. Many consider it the finest small museum in Europe.
Another lovely green space in Parker’s Piece, which is known as the birthplace of football—the first-ever game took place there in 1848.
