Guest blog by Plymouth Sound National Marine Park
Looking to enjoy a scenic picnic in Plymouth? A picnic never fails to put a smile on your face, and there are so many spots to choose from in Plymouth and around the National Marine Park.
The benefits of being outside in nature and next to the water are second to none, so grab your friends or family and discover some of the best picnic spots in on Plymouth's coast.
Devil’s Point, PL1 3RS
Located towards the west of the National Marine Park, Devil’s Point connects Firestone Bay with Royal William Yard along the South West Coastal Path with gorgeous panoramic views of Plymouth Sound across the bay. There is a car park which offers up to 3 hours of free parking, a beautiful blossom circle and even the opportunity to go for an open water swim afterwards.
Plymouth Hoe, PL1 2PA
The view that defines Plymouth is the ultimate picnic location in the city. Plymouth Hoe is bustling with people walking, socialising, and trying various sports. It's the go-to place to spend time outside with friends and family. It’s a short walk from the city centre, and disabled parking is available for free on the Hoe promenade.
Mount Edgcumbe, PL10 1HZ
Looking out across the National Marine Park from the waterfront, straight in front of you is Mount Edgcumbe. Catch the ferry from Admirals Hard at Stonehouse and explore 7km of coastline and historic landscape, there are plenty of spots to choose from! Admire the views back across the marine park, and enjoy a day out immersed in nature.
Mount Batten, PL9 9SJ
The picturesque setting of Mount Batten provides breathtaking views of the English Channel and the surrounding coastline. Having a picnic here offers a delightful combination of natural beauty and historical significance. Nearby there's plenty of facilities such as parking, picnic ables and restroom facilities.
Ernesettle Creek, PL5 2QJ
Relax with views of the River Tamar at Ernesettle Creek. A fantastic place for bird watching, this quiet part of the city is wonderful for exploring and offers beautiful views at high tide across Tamerton Lake.
Jennycliff, PL9 9SW
On the East of the National Marine Park lies Jennycliff, a short walk from Mount Batten accessible by ferry from the Barbican, but also has free parking. The open space presents a breathtaking view across all corners of the marine park and the River Tamar which can’t be beaten, especially at sunset.
Mount Wise, PL1 4QE
This hidden gem on the southern side of Devonport is a fantastic spot for those west of the city to enjoy Plymouth’s waterfront. The area is a natural amphitheatre looking down to where the River Tamar meets Plymouth Sound and across to Mount Edgcumbe.
Radford Park PL9 7NY
Located at Plymstock, Radford Park is located on the grounds of the former Radford House, home to the Harris Family and in its day often frequented by Sir Francis Drake and Sir Walter Raleigh. There’s a lake, lots of green hills, and an arboretum so plenty of choice to find the perfect spot to host a picnic!
