STEAM RAILWAYS

Links Paignton with Kingswear (and Dartmouth via a passenger ferry). Call Paignton Station (01803 555872) for details of times, fares and the 'Round Robin' trips which combine a river cruise, steam train ride and bus trip.
 
SOUTH DEVON
This historic line follows a seven mile scenic route beside the River Dart, between Buckfastleigh and Totnes via Staverton station. For information telephone 0845 345 1427 NB Both these railways are seasonal and do not generally run in the winter. Please check operating dates when calling.

With five estuaries in the South Hams, ferries are an important and enjoyable way to get from place to place.

If you're walking the South West Coast Path, they form an essential link across the estuaries. Because ferries are dependent on tides and weather, we advise that you check the times and availability of ferry services (apart from the Dartmouth to Kingswear passenger ferries which run every day all year round) before travelling - especially small 'walkers ferries' across the Avon and Yealm. Call the ferry operator, local harbour office or Tourist Information Centre for details.
