Blackpool Gardens has breathtaking coastal views and displays a rare variety of ferns, trees and shrubs mainly from the south, giving an unusual sub-tropical look to the place.
Dartmouth Museum is situated in an ancient Merchant house. This museum which dates back to 1640 has a lovely collection of ships including a wide photographic library.
