Exmouth Lifeboat Station

Free tours of Exmouth lifeboat station are available every weekend throughout the year and most weekdays during school summer holidays although this depends on the availability of volunteer tour guides. Tours last 30 to 40 minutes and give you the chance to see the two lifeboats at close quarters, learn about the RNLI and see the kit that volunteer crews use when they're saving lives at sea. If you have a group, then special tours can be organised on weekdays either during the day or in the evening. And if you ask one of the tour guides, they'll tell you when you can see the all weather lifeboat launched on one of the crew's regular training exercises. These usually happen every two weeks on Wednesday evenings. If you've enjoyed the television programmes, this is your chance to see the real thing.

This was an Impromptu tour of the lifeboat station on a family day trip to Exmouth and how interesting it was. The guide Lawrie was friendly, very knowledgable and kept all 3 generations of the family engaged, including the teenagers! We saw both on and off shore lifeboats and got a great understanding of what they do and how it all works ~ an impressive, fact filled tour. A lovely hour or so out, would recommend. Well done RNLI and full respect to all the volunteers who give their time.

I took my son and his friend to World of Country Life ( both 6 years old ) this week during half term. Wow what a day ! It was fantastic , they had so much fun . There was so much to do from the bouncy castles , soft play areas ,puzzle room, ride on toys , ball pit , park area , deer train , goat walk , seeing all the animals , walking around the old vehicles and motorbikes which my son particularly enjoyed , crazy golf, the big pirate ship and more! We had lunch in the cafe which was really nice . The choice on the menu was good and I was impressed with the specials board. My son had sausage and chips and I was impressed that the sausages wasn’t the standard frozen catering sausage you’d typically expect from a leisure attraction , he was served nice butchers sausages, which were yummy so I was told . The cafe was busy as it started to drizzle with rain but all the staff were very helpful and polite. It was decorated lovely with Halloween decorations . We will certainly return again next year and dine in the cafe. From start to finish it was an enjoyable day! Thank you for a great family fun day out.
