The wedge of land between Dartmoor and the sea contains some of Devon's most fertile pastures, backing onto some of the West's most popular coastal resorts. Chief of these is Torbay , an amalgam of Torquay, Paignton and Brixham and the nucleus of an area optimistically known as " The English Riviera ". To the south the port of Dartmouth offers a calmer alternative, linked by riverboat to historic and almost unspoilt Totnes . West of the River Dart, the rich agricultural district of South Hams extends as far as Plymouth, cleft by a web of rivers flowing off Dartmoor. The main town here is Kingsbridge , at the head of an estuary down which you can ferry to the sailing resort of Salcombe .
