Budleigh Salterton

Budleigh Salterton is a seaside town with an elegant atmosphere and a beach composed of unique pebbles.

One of the highlights of the World Heritage Jurassic Coast, the Budleigh Salterton pebbles are immediately recognisable. Carried here from Brittany by an ancient river flowing into the Triassic desert about 240 million years ago, erosion is gradually spilling them from Budleigh's cliffs onto the beach below.

Another impressive Jurassic Coast geological feature can be found just around the headland in towering rock stacks at Ladram Bay.
