| Scooby Exmouth walk | 2013-03-29 | Scooby takes Uncle Julian for a walk along the beach to Sandy Bay |
| Scooby hound at Sandy Bay with a GPS | 2014-03-03 | Just for a change, we put the GPS on Scooby hound this time. Instead of the 3 miles we cover on this walk, Scooby managed to do 9. Click the Replay GPS Track tab to get an impression of Scooby haring backwards and forwards along the beach! Double click on the map to zoom in and see the hound's track from one side of the beach to the other, A lovely winter's day with a few surfers out and lots of ships in the bay. |
| Round to Exmouth | 2017-08-14 | Round to Maer Rocks at Exmouth. Started raining just as I got to Exmouth. The last seven miles straight into the wind and the rain were hard work. |
| Straight Point and Exmouth Docks | 2017-05-07 | A sail on Derek's Fulmar down the estuary and then along to Straight Point (the Royal Marines weren't firing at the time). Sailed back alongside Julian's Halmatic 30 - the boats are nicely matched for speed. Then into Exmouth Marina whch was interesting. I'd not been into Exmouth Marina before in anything bigger than a RIB so going in under the lifting bridge in a 30 foot yacht was interesting. |
| Another Monday afternoon Jurassic Coast doggie walk | 2013-06-24 | From Exmouth to Sandy Bay at low tide. |
| Scooby new year beach walk | 2014-01-02 | One of Scoobys favourite walks - from Exmouth to Sandy Bay - the start of the Jurassic Coast. Back along the cliff top as the tide was coming in. |
| Scoobys 2nd favourite beach walk | 2013-02-02 | After Woolacombe at low tide |
| Exmouth and back | 2017-07-30 | Round to Exmouth and back. Stopped at the Turf Locks for a pint on the way back. And then another pint when Gerry H appeared. Quite a strong wind but mostly on the side until it moved to being dead on the nose after leaving the pub! The birds in the photos were by the Turf Locks. I thought they only "grouped up" like this just before they headed south for the winter and it's too early for that... |
| First bike ride of 2017 | 2017-01-03 | Round to Exmouth and back. And today's lesson learned is not to eat a cheese and tomato toastie with chips at the Exmouth beach cafe immediately before heading off back into the wind for umpteen miles... |
| Exmouth to Sandy Bay | 2015-10-12 | A glorious sunny August summer's day in the middle of October! So we took Scooby for one of his favourite beach walks along the start of the Jurassic Coast to Sandy Bay. The cafe at the holiday camp was open and surprisingly pleasant! Watched the Royal Marines shoot things. Scooby mithered when we tried to sit on the beach for a bit and read - clearly not correct beach behaviour! |
| Exmouth to Sandy Bay doggie walk | 2012-12-30 | A low tide walk along the start of the Jurassic Coast. Every other dog owner in Devon had the same idea. |
| Exmouth and back | 2016-12-28 | A slightly longer cycle ride than usual. Average speed would probably have been a fair bit better if it wasn't for a strong wind right on the nose for the last 6 miles. |
| Round to Exmouth and back | 2016-10-25 | I missed out on yesterday's cycle ride due to the incessant rain and being a wuss. To make up, today's ride was round to Exmouth and the start of the Jurassic Coast. On the way out I told myself that I'd catch the ferry back. When I was there I thought "that wasn't so" bad so I rode back. It's a long way for someone like me! |
| Exmouth to Sandy Bay | 2016-10-16 | Another low tide dog walk from Exmouth sea front to Sandy Bay. Start of the Jurrasic Coast... More photos of Scooby on the beach and one of the moon over Exmouth the night before |
| Exmouth beack walk | 2015-12-13 | Another low tide Exmouth beach walk for Scooby. Scooby very happy with life. |
| Sandy Bay dog walk | 2014-02-16 | Another low tide walk along the Jurassic Coast from Orcombe Point to Sandy Bay |
| Exmouth and back | 2017-02-11 | Round to Exmouth and back to meet up with the SYC dinghy cruisers at the Beach Cafe. Temperature was between one and two degrees with flurries of snow. |
| SYC trip to the beach cafe - by bike | 2015-09-05 | A first SYC organised cycle ride. From SYC on the west back round to the beach cafe at Exmouth on the east bank. Ten participants. |
| Sccoby walk to Sandy Bay | 2015-01-05 | First Exmouth to Sandy Bay Scooby walk of 2015. |
| Last days of summer? | 2016-10-02 | A lovely summy summer's day - maybe one of the last of 2016? So we took Scooby on one of his favourite beach walks - from Exmouth to Sandy Bay. Got there a little late - just past low tide - so as we were unlikely to get back round Orcombe rocks without getting a bit wet on teh way back, we came back on the cliff top walk. |
| Two hounds at Sandy Bay | 2015-02-21 | Another walk from Exmouth to Sandy Bay (i.e. along the start of the Jurassic Coast) but this time with the next door neighbour's hound as well - Willow. Walk coincided with the lowest tide of the year (and a "super tide" at that) |
| Budleigh on a tandem | 2017-01-14 | Darts Farm, Topsham to Budleigh Salterton and back. Liz's birthday present - a ride on a tandem. Quite a nice tandem - a Dawes hired from Darts Farm at Topsham. Some of the cycle track between Exmouth and Budleigh was being dug up so we had to go "off piste" for a bit and that meant going up some hills! |
