Neighbourhood information

Our main industry in Brixham is fishing and we are one of the busiest ports in Europe. There is always something going on here from Regattas, Pirate Festivals, Heritage Weeks and Food Fests to name but a few. These events draw thousands of people to Brixham every year and every Summer there are not enough rooms to cope with it all. This is a vibrant town which draws young and old back every year.
