Exmouth
Devon, United Kingdom
Exmouth is a historic seaside town in Devon, United Kingdom, located at the mouth of the River Exe on the English Channel coast.
Its origins date back to the 13th century as a small fishing village with farms and a ferry dock. The town developed significantly in the 18th century, becoming Devon's oldest seaside resort known for its healing salt waters and scenic sea views, attracting wealthy visitors including Lady Byron and Ada Lovelace.
