Porlock Weir | Where Exmoor meets the sea
Porlock Weir, an ancient seaside port and picturesque coastal village, is situated on the edge of the Exmoor National Park in West Somerset. Surrounded by steep wooded slopes, verdant farmland and the heather covered moor, it provides the perfect base for walkers, cyclists, and nature lovers alike. The bustling harbour village is a hive of activity with plenty to do for all ages, such as boat trips, crabbing, paddle boarding, browsing the local shops or simply relaxing on the pebble beach with an ice cream in hand. Its range of eating and accommodation options, plus its welcoming community, make Porlock Weir the perfect place to visit for the day or even better, for that little bit longer.
