Cockwood Harbour

Cockwood Harbour is a small tidal harbour on the west shore of the Exe Estuary, situated in the village of Cockwood in Devon, between Dawlish Warren and Starcross. Boats access the harbour by passing under the main Exeter–Torquay railway line via a bridge.

The harbour sits within Dawlish civil parish in the Teignbridge district. A small watercourse discharges through the harbour at Cockwood, entering the Exe Estuary just south of the nearby Staplake Brook, which itself outfalls at Starcross.

South of the village centre, a pedestrian track crosses the railway and leads to Cockwood Steps, where a landing for small boats offers views across the estuary.
