When to visit

For an unforgettable family holiday in Exmouth, visit between late June and early September when you can enjoy the best of Devon's warm weather. These summer months offer the perfect conditions for beach days, watersports, and scenic trails to explore with your family.

To avoid peak season crowds and still experience pleasant weather, consider planning your trip during the shoulder months, such as May or September. While Exmouth entertains families year-round, visiting outside of school terms is always advisable, as lodging prices tend to be cheaper during these times.
