When the school bell finally tolls for the holidays, Westward Ho! transforms into a vibrant hub of family fun, offering an idyllic escape for children and parents alike.

With its unique Pebble Ridge leading to a vast sandy beach at low tide, days are filled with building elaborate sandcastles, discovering marine life in rock pools, and splashing in the refreshing waves; little ones delight in bodyboarding whilst older kids might try their hand at surfing or paddle boarding, embracing the wild spirit of the North Devon coast.

Beyond the shoreline, the expansive Big Green becomes a natural playground for kite-flying, picnics, and endless games of football or frisbee, ensuring there’s always space to run free, while classic seaside arcades and a round of mini-golf provide traditional entertainment for all ages.

The air buzzes with the sound of laughter and the salty scent of the ocean, creating a relaxed yet exhilarating atmosphere where precious family memories are effortlessly made under the vast Devon skies.

There’s also a natural sea pool, filled by the ocean and cleaned annually to keep it in good condition.

It was made all the way back when Westward Ho! was created as a holiday resort in 1856. The Victorians used to travel miles just to swim in the Atlantic at Westward Ho! and they soon built the sea pool as it was reported to have health benefits, which is definitely true today.

The sound of crashing waves around you whilst you are swimming combined with the knowledge that there’s no chance you’ll be washed out to sea makes the pool an incredibly cool feature of Westward Ho! beach.

It has a gentle slope with a shallow and deep end meaning keen swimmers, families or those just looking to relax can enjoy this coastal gem.
