The best time to go to Shaldon is during the late spring, summer, and early autumn months, specifically from May to September, when the weather is at its most pleasant.
During these months, the village experiences warmer temperatures and longer daylight hours, making it ideal for enjoying the beaches, coastal walks, and outdoor activities. The sea is also warmer, which is great for swimming, paddleboarding, and kayaking in the Teign Estuary.
Families will find the summer months of July and August particularly appealing. This is when the Shaldon Regatta takes place, offering a week of traditional sailing races, rowing, and onshore events that are very popular with locals and visitors alike. The village also has a small zoo, Shaldon Wildlife Trust, which is a great outing for children.
Couples looking for a peaceful escape might prefer May, June, or September. These months offer lovely weather with fewer crowds, allowing for relaxed strolls along Ness Beach, enjoying a cream tea at a local cafe, or exploring the botanical gardens.
