Salcombe Town Guide - pg 2

Island Street is the other main street in the town, and is linked to Fore Street by a wide waterside pathway, with superb views across the Estuary. Island Street provides a home for the many boatyards of Salcombe. Here, Salcombe Dairy produce their famous and delicious ice cream in Salcombe, and it is sold at many outlets along Fore Street. High-Quality chocolate is also produced by the town's two chocolate companies.

Many Sailing schools also operate from the town, and there are several boat hire shops dotted around Salcombe if you feel the need to take to the water. Of these, the The Island Cruising Club (ICC) is the most famous, mainly for its base, Egremont, an Ex-Mersey ferry now moored permanently just out of sight up the estuary. From here, quality sailing tuition and holidays are provided for all ages and the ferry now has numerous facilities such as a Bar.
