Anstey's Cove
Anstey's Cove is a strikingly peaceful spot tucked between Torquay and Babbacombe, where you can drop anchor and take in a small shingle beach flanked by dramatic high limestone cliffs. It's one of those places that feels genuinely hidden away, and once you're there you can explore the bay by kayak or paddleboard, or simply enjoy the calm and the scenery.
