Orcombe Point

Exmouth's eastern headland and the start of the Jurassic Coast.

Orcombe Point is the red sandstone headland at the eastern end of Exmouth beach and the official start of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site. On a calm day it is a lovely paddle from the seafront, and when a southerly swell is running there can be a wave off the point.

Rocks show at low water, so time it for the top half of the tide and keep an eye on the swell wrapping around the headland.
