Torbay does not have lifeguards for the reasons shown on the card, but there is still risk involved when entering the water and beach/watercraft users should be aware of these risks. #RespectTheWater #StaySafe #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #LoveDevon

It's easy to ignore leaflets as bin clogging rubbish, but these are both interesting and important! #RespectThe Water #Stay Safe #Paddleboarding #LifeSavingAdvice

With 22 miles of coast line some areas can be challenging to walk. #StaySafe and take heed of good advice. Not just for Torbay, but anywhere you are walking on or near cliffs edges and rough coastal paths. #RespectTheWater #EnglishRiviera #SWCoastPath

Great news from the Missin' Tackle Shanty Crew who have been singing under the Old Fish Market at Brixham and raised nearly ยฃ1300 for Shoalstone Sea Pool! If you haven't heard them perform you should - a great group supporting Brixham community! #EnglishRiviera #Brixham

Our SM Gremlin was obviously distracted taking this pic of one of our beaches, but #WhereInTheBay where they to take this fine picture of a rock wall? #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #LoveDevon

We've had another bike fished out of the harbour at Brixham. Poor condition this one, but if it's yours and you want it back get in touch with proof of ownership, after 6 weeks it'll be disposed of. #CarreraMountainBike #BrixhamHarbour #FoundProperty

We started easy because of the break in service but this shouldn't be too difficult, after a good beach clean! #WhereInTheBay were these tracks left? #TakeOnlyPhotographsLeaveOnlyFootprints #EnglishRiviera #LoveDevon #DevonLife #SandyToes

#WhereInTheBay would you see this little fellow and do you know what it represents? I don't expect this to last long before it's identified but there are others close by even more out of place - can you identify those too? #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #LoveDevon #LookCloser

#WhereInTheBay would you find this little golden arrow? I'm not expecting this to remain a puzzle for long... A popular place to catch sight of dolphins or seals, or just have a nice lunch. #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #LoveDevon

Have you left something on Fishcombe beach this week? A little Topper sailing dinghy, maybe? If so contact Brixham Harbour Office within 28 days or we will have to dispose of it as an abandoned vessel. #FishcombeBeach #TopperDinghy [email protected]

Life can be a beach so long as people pay attention to their surroundings and take responsibility for their safety. Most do, but we still need signage which seems a bit obvious for the rest of us. #WhereInTheBay is this one? #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #LoveDevon #BeachSafety

#RespectTheWater - Care must always be taken near the sea especially when weather conditions create a heightened risk of being swept off your feet. Chances of getting safely ashore in these conditions? Not great! #EnglishRiviera #PaigntonWaves #StormSurge

Our SM gremlin is being a bit mean this week. Obviously Turnstones, obviously seen throughout The Bay. But #WhereInTheBay were these little fellows seen picking at steps? 10 cool points and a hearty high 5 for this! #EnglishRiviera #LifeIsABeach #WatchingTheWildlife #DevonLife

Exercising mindfulness in the Bay, you might come across a boundary marker like this alongside the coast path. But #WhereInTheBay on our 22 miles of coastline would you find this? Or perhaps you know of more than one? #EnglishRiviera #SWCoastPath #GreatWesternRailway #LoveDevon

Our SM Gremlin passed this charity box many times before noticing it - with their deep pockets and short arms! #WhereInTheBay can you quite you easily trip over this charity box and practice your philanthropy? #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #LoveDevon

Busy people leading busy lives sometimes don't have time to look up and around. If they did, #WhereInTheBay would they see this stone edifice? More people probably go over than under and never even think about it. #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #LoveDevon #GreatBigRockThing

Got to be honest, the irregular pattern triggers our SM Gremlin just a little bit with their mild OCD, but #WhereInTheBay can you get a continental feel and also be triggered a little bit? Bit easier this one โ˜บ๏ธ #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #LoveDevon
