Whilst Torquay has always been a lively focus for the 'English Riviera', something new is happening.

Fresh life is being breathed into the waterside area thanks to a £21m investment, creating a water-based arena of ships, yachts and powerboats, overlooked by a rich variety of shops and restaurants.

This exciting development includes streetscape remodelling, new family restaurants and 'Living Coasts', a unique marine animal visitor attraction that focuses on the conservation of marine life around the globe.

These exciting attractions will swell the number of visitors already coming to the Torbay area. The Cruise liner programme has significantly increased the number of high-quality, high-spend visitors to the town.

Fleet walk and the harbour area now offer the stylish shops, restaurants and exciting developments that are perfect for these visitors.

The 'Around Alone' yacht race, starting from New York's Statue of Liberty, features Torbay as the first staging point after the transatlantic crossing.

Torbay is the third largest urban area in the South West. Resident population is 130,000 and increases to over 200,000 in the summer.

Torquay has a direct population of approximately 64,000, 285,000 people are within a 30-minute drive-time.
Torquay has a thriving "language school" industry with 18,000 affliuent foreign students during the summer months.
This demonstrates the affluence and spending power of the catchment.
