I love all the rugged cliffs and inlets along the North Devon coast and how tiny hamlets, villages and towns make use of every precious piece of land, clinging to the cliffs. They all seem to have 'Combe' in their name as well: Woolacombe; Babbacombe; Ilfracombe and this one is Combe Martin.

West side looking North. Next dry land is the eastern seaboard of The United States. Silence and stillness - all you can hear are the waves and seabirds.

I've been here several times before and camped here once. The place always impresses me. One of the most beautiful places in the World I reckon.

Coasteering

I was sitting, nice a dry on a boat, enjoying my trip along the North Devon Coast. These guys were doing it the hard way by climbing and scrambling over the rocks, before jumping into the sea and swimming to the next accessible point. Rather them than me. 😀

Hartland Quay, NorthDevon. by Gordon Humphreys

1

The rocks of Hartland Quay are the remains of a mountain range. Sedimentary rocks were deposited in the shallow sea during the Carboniferous period around 320 million years ago. Plate tectonics caused the collision of two super oninends with Hartland Quay in the middle. As these two continents collided, the rocks at Hartland Quay were buckled and folded producing the spectacular shaped folds exposed in the cliffs today.
