LOCAL ATTRACTIONS

Torquay is one of the UK’s leading seaside resort towns thanks to its location, pristine beaches, and a boost from the Great Western Railway Company. This small town was promoted by the railway company after WW2 to boost it into the tourist attraction that it is today and thanks to this there are plenty of local attractions to visit.

The number one people visit this town is thanks to its seaside location. The town is known as the UK Riviera and has plenty of boats anchored inside the relatively large Torquay Harbor. This seaside town doesn’t have that many beaches but just next door in the town of Preston you’ll find the famous Preston Sands beach.

If you’re interested in the history of the area, Torquay Museum and the Torre Abbey Museum both offer different pieces of history. At the Torre Abbey Museum, the main focus is on the medieval history of the area with tours of the abbey and its gardens. Torquay Museum has various displays of local and world modern history.
