Salcombe is a seaside town in the South Hams district of Devon, south west England. The town is close to the mouth of the Kingsbridge Estuary, built mostly on the steep west side of the estuary and lies within the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The town's extensive waterfront and the naturally sheltered harbour formed by the estuary gave rise to its success as a boat and shipbuilding and sailing port and, in modern times, tourism especially in the form of pleasure sailing and yachting. The town is also home to a traditional shellfish fishing industry.
We visited here in 1999 in a sence, we only saw it from the sea, as we had taken a tourist trip on a round the bay boat, starting in Kingsbridge. We came to Salcombe in 2013 for a pleasant discovery of the place. We then returned to Salcombe in April 2014.
