It's a rain shelter, its a sun shade, it's a welcome sit down after a day walking on the prom. #WhereInTheBay can you rest your weary feet and eat your chips in this little pavilion? #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #DevonNightlife #LoveDevon

This shouldn't take long to identify, next to a brilliant facility for residents and visitors alike. But #WhereInTheBay is this compass rose? #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #LoveDevon

An inveterate risk taker, our SM Gremlin took this picture standing on a wall indicating a sudden drop on both sides of the warning sign. #WhereInTheBay did they risk life and limb (or rather heavy bruising) for this pic? 🫣 #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #LoveDevon #WatchYourStep

Our SM gremlin was a bit early to work this morning and was in time for this glorious sunrise, seemed a shame not to share it!

A blustery walk is often necessary after New Year Excess. Fortunately, Torbay has a lot of bluster to go around but #WhereInTheBay was this stroll taken? #NewYearSameUs #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #LoveDevon #LifeIsABeach

We were told about this worthy fund raiser, taking place tomorrow, and we thought we'd share it on behalf of our Swisco colleague who deserves some assistance with his effort. Maybe you think he deserves support too. #YoungLivesVersusCancer https://t.co/4LX2dD6BBL

There are often marker posts off our coastline for warnings or information, #WhereInTheBay is this rusty outflow marker? #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #WaterHazards #RespectTheSea #TheclueIsInTheBackground

Brixham basin filling up with the fishing fleet returning for a short break over Christmas. Our SM gremlin will also be home for a short break, so SM messages will not be fully monitored until 2025 - contact us via email - harbour.authority@torbay.gov.uk #XmasAtBrixham

This is welcome news from DEFRA, despite issues with storm overflow running into the sea over the months, Torbados is still the place to visit! https://t.co/ctq0pEuybO #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #LoveDevon #LifeIsABeach

Opportunities to slip/trip /fall abound. We can't always give warning but where there is potential to give photographers a clue for a photo opportunity we do. #WhereInTheBay is this little hazard, waiting to catch the unwary? #DevonLife #EnglishRiviera #RespectTheSea #LoveDevon

We see a fair few anchors around the Bay, often not attached to a boat, like this one. High and dry, #WhereInTheBay is this chunk of iron? #EnglishRiviera #DevonLife #Lovedevon #Torbay #FouledAnchor

Bad weather this weekend, a North-Westerly is forecast and this Mooring Swan recommends you check your vessels if still in the water. He looks like he means business, better do as he honks! (Yes, I know swans don't honk 🙄 ) #HarbourLife #WeatherWarning #DevonLife #Honk!

This should be easy for everyone. #WhereInTheBay was this taken? Side note - this was the first harbour our social media gremlin ever visited back in 1972! #EnglishRiviera #Torbay #DevonLife #LoveDevon #Boating #Modelvillage

Before the storm last week a wintery sunset over Haldon Pier, Torquay taken by one of our Operational Team. Thanks to AP for catching the last rays of the day. #EnglishRiviera #LoveDevon #DevonLife #BeautifulSunsets
