Sightseers still climb to the harbourside for the view that made Torquay a favourite of Agatha Christie, who set several mysteries along this stretch of the English Riviera. Palm trees line the seafront, a nod to the mild coastal climate, while the town's terraced cafes catch the sun most of the year — browse them at cafes. When appetite calls for something heartier, the restaurants and harbourview hotels round out a stay here.
