   • Exeter. A city bursting with historical hidden gems, Exeter has plenty of stories to tell. Originating as a Roman city, there are still Roman walls (and a Roman Bathhouse that hasn’t yet been excavated!).
   • Exmouth. Sitting just 11 miles south of Exeter, where the River Exe meets the sea, is the buzzing beach town of Exmouth – a two-mile-long stretch of sand that connects the Exe Estuary to the red rock of the oldest part of the Jurassic Coast.
   • The Exe Estuary. Connecting Exeter with Exmouth on one side and Dawlish Warren on the other, the Exe Estuary is a network of villages and points of interest, but the entire river remains one of the best places to visit in Devon for the sheer riverside beauty and array of fascinating attractions.
   • Budleigh Salterton. Sitting just to the east of Exmouth (check out my hiking guide between the two towns!) Budleigh Salterton is the first (or last, depending on which way you look at it!)
