Exmouth, River Exe
River Exe & The Exmouth Local Nature Reserve 

If it's low tide you can gaze westward across the enormous area of mud-bank known as Cockle Sand with the river a long way away, if it's high tide there is an unbelievably vast expanse of water. On the River Exe many species of birds can be seen. The first section of the path is surfaced for wheelchair users and is part of the Exmouth Local Nature Reserve, including Brent goose.

The estuary of the River Exe is renowned nationally and beyond as a site of special scientific interest and an important habitat for wading and migrating birds. It receives many visitors the whole year round as a site of pilgrimage for ornithologists.
