After Woolacombe at low tide

First time at Exmouth taking Tye Hound along the beach at low tide to Sandy Bay. Overall a success but he is far too keen on eating seaweed for his own good.

Low tide walk to Sandy Bay with Scooby Hound. Hound happy.

Lovely paddle down to Sandy Bay. Not much wind against tide on the way out and then back with the wind and tide. Marvellous!

Beach mostly to ourselves

With Derek H as his Fulmar was launched from Topsham Quay on the highest tides of the year. A lovely day so on out to sea. A bit of wind for some sailing. Lunch anchored at Sandy Bay where a couple of small dolphins came…

A trip round to Exmouth to give the camper van its winter monthly run. Scooby Hound loves Exmouth beach at low tide,

Seems everyone else in Devon had the same idea and took their dogs to Exmouth for a low tide dog walk. Think the phone GPS must be in a strop - don't think we reached 64 mph.

Round to Topsham to pick up the repaired Wayfarer sail and then on to Exmouth to give Scooby hound a low tide walk along to Sandy Bay. Scooby very excited!

A van ride round to Exmouth to give Scooby a walk on his favourite beach. Unfortunately, Scooby jumped a rock while chasing the ball but didn't spot the deep ditch on the other side. Scooby went head over heels and tore…

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…

Last doggie walk of the holiday. From Exmouth to Sandy Bay and back again at low tide

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 forwar…

Past Straight Point and on to Budleigh. Not much wind for some of the time but a lovely day and a lovely sail.

First Exmouth to Sandy Bay Scooby walk of 2015.

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"…

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 surprisi…

Another low tide walk along the Jurassic Coast from Orcombe Point to Sandy Bay

From Eype over high (Jurassic) cliffs to West Bay. About a F4 but southerly so entering West Bay harbour by boat would have been problematic - and a bit bouncy one inside on the outer pontoons. Then up by the Birt River…

Round from La Greve de la Ville anchorage on the east side of Sark to the Saigne Bay anchorage on the west side. The Saigne Bay anchorage has some rather dramatic rock stacks (think James Bond / The Man With The Golden…

Out from the Iles Chausey via the northern passage. Look carefully at the chart and you'll see that the passage dries to a height of up to 4.5 metres! However, with a tidal range of 10 metres and the excellent French nav…

Back to Rock (opposite Padstow) for a slightly soggy walk along to the mouth of the Camel Estuary. Visited St Endoc Church - the last resting place of John Betjeman - and considered his lifetime's regret! Expensive lunch…
