8 Best Activities In Exmouth
Rain forecast? This is a seaside town that handles it better than most. The indoor column holds six of the eight listings, and they are not variations on one theme: Exmouth Museum and A La Ronde for looking at things, Vertexe Climbing for effort, Arty Boat for a table and a mess, Ocean for bowling. Outdoors, Hawkridge Bird of Prey Centre and World of Country Life handle the animals, and Exmouth Mystery Treasure Trail turns the streets into the activity.

A rare coastal list where the wet-weather plan is about as strong as the dry one. Pick the indoor listings by how much energy needs burning off, and check ages and booking with the venue for the climbing and craft sessions.
Visiting Exmouth with kids: FAQs
What is a rainy half-term day like here?
Manageable. Vertexe Climbing takes care of the energy, Arty Boat takes care of the concentration, and Ocean is the bowling option for when the group cannot agree on anything. Exmouth Museum and A La Ronde suit a slower pace. That is enough to fill a day without anyone having to be brave about the weather.
Which listings involve animals?
Hawkridge Bird of Prey Centre is the specialist one and is outdoor, so it needs a dry spell behind it. World of Country Life is down as both indoor and outdoor, which makes it the more forgiving choice with an uncertain forecast and younger children. Both are worth ringing first to ask what is on while you are there.
Anything for an older child who finds museums dull?
Vertexe Climbing is the strongest answer, with Ocean as the low-effort alternative. Exmouth Mystery Treasure Trail works with older children who like a puzzle and dislike being told they are going on a walk. A La Ronde is an odd enough building that it sometimes wins over a sceptic, but do not count on that.
