Paignton, along with Torquay and Brixham, make up the three towns of Torbay, the "English Riviera".

Paignton is famed for its long sandy beaches, the town has developed as a lively fun centre and very popular tourist town.

The sea front comes alive in the season, and all the normal attractions associated with a british seaside holiday are here in abundance.

Quaywest water park and the Paignton to Dartmouth Steam railway are great attractions and popular with young and old.
