Coastal walks from Orcombe Point, Exmouth: Head to the end of the beach, by Bumble and Sea - follow the zigzag path then join the clifftop and walk along to Budleigh Salterton (keep dogs on lead as steep cliffs) or if the tide is out walk along the beach then you can cut back up at one of the holiday parks and walk back along the clifftop. Or you can keep going past Budleigh, and onto Ladram Bay, or Sidmouth.
