‘Stroll hand-in-hand along the illuminated trail beside Torquay’s seafront and see the famous palm trees in glittering splendour’
FOR COUPLES
Feel the magic of the English Riviera: say what you like about Torquay – and lots of people do – but this place is pretty special at this time of year. The Bay of Lights event (tinyurl.com/39rn3pj4) is a recent and very welcome addition to the Riviera’s festive programme. Stroll hand-in-hand along the 1½-mile illuminated trail beside Torquay’s seafront and see the famous palm trees in glittering splendour. Other light-filled events are taking place across Torquay, Paignton and Brixham.
Also make time to explore the coastal walks, award-winning beaches and decent restaurants in a part of Devon determined to be taken more seriously as a destination. Yep, the English Riviera is about much more than a certain 1970s hotel sitcom.
