The Beaches of Somerset - Watchet

OS Explorer Map OL9 ExmoorOS Explorer Map OL9 Exmoor

This map is part of the Ordnance Survey's Explorer series designed to replace the old Pathfinder map series. At 1:25,000 scale this detailed map shows a host of attractions including gardens which are open to the public, nature reserves and country parks as well as all official footpaths, bridleways, roads and lanes. Other facilities covered include: camping and caravan sites, picnic areas and viewpoints, selected places of interest, rights of way information for England and Wales, National Trail and Recreational Path routes, and selected tourist information. The series is aimed mainly at the experienced map user but can be used by tourists and locals alike.

Watchet is a harbour town fronted by a rocky foreshore, exposed for up to half a mile at low tide. The water quality was not tested by the Marine Conservation Society in 2010. Local facilities include a slipway, food, toilets, disabled toilets and shops. Parking is available in the town. Things to do include boating, boat trips and searching for fossils.
