South Huish is also very near to the old fishing village of Hope Cove which also has sandy beaches.

Salcombe lies in the other direction and is justly famous for its beautiful estuary, its sailing and boating and its golden beaches. In between the coastal scenery is magnificent and there are fabulous walks around the South Devon coast path. At the head of the Salcombe estuary is Kingsbridge which offers a good range of shopping and other amenities and is the focal point for this part of the South Hams.
