Woolacombe: Guide
Wollacombe is a seaside resort on the coast of North Devon, England, which lies at the mouth of a valley. The beach is 3km, sandy and gently sloping, making it ideal for flying kites. The waves are gentle when the tide is out but become more vigorous when the tide is in. This provides different types of fun. The beach has a blue flag and is a popular destination for surfing. It is considered a tranquil area. An occasional bus service runs from the town to Ilfracombe, Combe Martin and Mortehoe.
The winter population is very small (around 1,000), however, during the summer many people come to the town for a holiday.
