Mount Batten

Mount Batten is a historic peninsula jutting into Plymouth Sound, where you'll drop the hook with sweeping views of the city, the famous breakwater, and the rolling Dartmoor hills beyond. It has a real sense of place — this was once a key RAF seaplane base and has centuries of maritime history baked into its shoreline, sitting just across the water from the Barbican, Plymouth's vibrant old quarter.
