Brixham Nightlife

Brixham Nightlife

Not as frantic as Torquay in the evenings, Brixham has a quiet peace all of its own.

Imagine a hot and tranquil day, a cold glass of wine or a cool beer down on the waterfront accompanied by fresh seafood.

A traditional reputation and heritage still in tact.

Take a stroll around the coastline or take the view from Berry head to help digest the repast. Brixham's heritage and location have ensured that Brixham's more traditional reputation is still intact, so if any of the youngsters in the pack want to dance the night away, then book a taxi to Paignton or Torquay where there is more than enough for all tastes.

Families, Couples & Lovers

Brixham is ideally situated to dine in Dartmouth or maybe Churston Court, with only a short drive needed. Dartmouth with the Ferry trip across the Dart also makes for a good evening or lunchtime trip. There is no cinema in Brixham, but the Apollo Cinema in Paignton is only 5 miles away and has all the latest releases in a multi-screen complex. Follow the signposts for the seafront and the Apollo is in the middle of Paignton green!

"After dark" in Brixham also sees the Conger Fishermen bring out the big rods and creep away to their well kept secret fishing spots. Some of these are in the quarry areas, some we know not where, but if you are a fisherman, we can guarantee that in these waters lie some of the biggest congers in the UK.

On some evenings throughout the year the town will see local carnivals or as in August an early evening display by the Red Arrows. Check out the events page to see more.
