Enjoy the fresh air and the scenery while you take a stroll around the Waterfront and immerse yourself in the city's rich maritime heritage.Optional ExcursionBrixham & Dartmouth (£11pp) (full day)Our first stop today is Brixham, an attractive port with colourful fisher cottages on the surrounding hillsides. There's so much to discover here, from the winding streets, snug with bustling arcades and gift shops to, the horseshoe harbour, home to a replica of Sir Francis Drake's ship, the Golden Hind.We then make our way to the riverside town of Dartmouth. Known as the 'Jewel of the South Hams' and a former home to Agatha Christie, Dartmouth is easily one of Devon's prettiest destinations thanks to its views over the estuary. Explore the pastel-coloured buildings leaning at angles and the picturesque harbour laden with yachts and pleasure boats.

Torquay
Torquay has been one of the UK's top holiday destinations since Victorian times when the Riviera name was used to describe this favourite of resorts. Their legacy remains with sparkling white villas perched on the hilltops and elegant Victorian facades along the main streets to make a beautiful setting for a perfect coach break.\n\nTorquay's famous seven hills provide the backdrop to the waterfront, with 22 miles of coastline, cliffs, coves, beaches and walks to rival any in the South West of England and a climate that belongs somewhere much further south. Stunning views can be seen just about everywhere across the bay, out over the English Channel.\n\nTorquay is very much a place to relax, in the many pavement cafés, pubs and restaurants, so soak up the atmosphere, take in the scenery, stroll around the parks and the gardens - everything you need for a an enjoyable coach holiday in a traditional English seaside resort!
