Beach huts and ice cream pedalos and parasols.
Occupying the central third of the Bay, most of Paignton town is compact and
level, with the Esplanade, miles of sandy beaches, the pier and harbour all
within easy reach.
Brightly coloured villas line the Esplanade and provide a strong reminder of
days gone by. Paignton Pier - which was originally built for Victorian
promenaders - completes the picture with cafés and amusements through the
day and evening.
And, of course, much of life in this town revolves around the seafront. With
its long sandy beaches, colourful atmosphere and safe paddling and swimming,
it is a true family resort. Right next to the beach is Paignton Green where
many events are staged throughout the year and games of cricket, football
and rounders are often the order of the day.
There is a wide variety of accommodation in Paignton. Guest houses and
hotels can be found near the beaches and the area is particularly popular
for self catering holidays and has some of the region's best holiday parks.
Plenty of attractions within close reach will also keep you and the family
entertained, including Paignton Zoo, the Paignton & Dartmouth Steam Railway
and the open-air water park with half a mile of water slides at the Quaywest
Beach Resort.
