Salcombe has 4 pubs, and they all serve food. The Ferry Inn is always tempting.

Eventually however we ended up at the Kings Arms, where we enjoyed squid, fish & chips, and Val had a sea bass. We finished off with drinks by the fire which, with the storm still raging outside, was very cosy.

This morning the weather had calmed down. I popped out to the shops for some supplies while Val prepared for her German class.

We had crab sandwiches from the deli for lunch, before setting off for North Sands which is just around the coast to the west.

High tide – no beach for the kids to play on at the moment.

Despite thunderstorms being forecast, the weather stayed nice for most of the afternoon.

There’s a crab shack on the quay where the fishing boats unload their catches. This being Salcombe, it’s the poshest crab shack I’ve ever seen. We’ve got a table reserved for this evening, so fingers crossed some lobsters were landed today.
