We understand the importance of assistance dogs. They support their owners' daily activities and well-being. We have a commitment to accessibility. Working/assistance dogs are permitted on all Torbay beaches, all year round.
We want everyone to have a comfortable experience on the beach. We kindly request that all assistance dogs are clearly identified as such with a vest or harness. This helps to inform other beachgoers. They will then understand why the dog is on the beach and welcome it.
Brixham’s Shoalstone Pool is an outdoor seawater swimming pool and is one of only a few left in the country. It is built on a natural rock pool and was opened to the public in 1896. It has large open areas to relax in and enjoy the sun and there is also Shoalstone Beach, a small shingle beach adjacent to the pool.
Shoalstone Pool is open for general swimming from May to September. There is no entry charge, but they do ask for a voluntary donation to help cover our running costs.
There is easy access at the back of the pool and a nice café with superb views across the bay. There is a picnic area to use if you have brought your own food and drink.
