πŸ“ Start Point & Start Point Lighthouse, South Devon

Perched on the rugged coastline of Start Bay, just a few miles from Dartmouth, Start Point offers spectacular views across the South Devon coast.

With steep cliffs, sandy bays, rocky terrain and rich coastal habitat, it’s a fantastic location for observing a wide variety of wildlife. Keep your eyes on the water and you could be rewarded with sightings of dolphins, whales and even tuna, while gannets and other seabirds can often be spotted along the coast.

The surrounding vegetation also provides habitat for plenty of smaller birds and animals, with the occasional sighting of impressive predators such as merlins and peregrines.

The lighthouse can be reached via a relatively easy tarmac path from the car park, while the higher, more rugged routes offer some incredible vantage points - although care should always be taken around the steep terrain.

A beautiful spot for coastal exploration, wildlife watching and putting your optics to good use.
