We did the walk described at http://www.southwestcoastpath.com/main/walks/index.cfm?fsa=dspWalkDetail&w_id=120 but parked at Berry Head instead of Brixham so started the walk half way round.
The walk along the coast from Berry Head car park to St Mary's Bay was nice, but nothing spectacular. We then turned inland and headed towards Brixham harbour. The instructions were very clear and as we approached the harbour the views were spectacular as we looked down over the harbour. You could see that the port is still very much working as a fishing port with the boats coming and going.
We walked around the harbour looking at the various boats and the Golden Hinde.
We then walked up from the harbour past the marina and towards Berry Head. We could look around Torbay to Torquay and beyond, but it was hazy so I took no photos. The path wound up through some pretty woods with cyclamen at the side. At the end of Berry Head the views along the coast was magnificent.
Parking at Berry Head was £1 per hour. As we walked past Shoalstone beach we noted that the car park there was £1.20 for 24 hours in winter. Much better value!
