Descripción

Hope's Nose is primarily a seawatching point in the town of Torquay, it is East facing and during duller misty days with poorer visibility or onshore winds seabirds can get very close to shore. The area once very overgrown is now more open, it has an old quarry on it's North side with three smallish islands just off the point, the Leadstone, Ore Stone and Thatcher Rock, BE AWARE there are STEEP CLIFFS and FOOTPATHS around this area.
