Hope Cove in South Devon is a two-beach cove surf zone where Harbour Beach and Mouthwell Sands share the same small village backdrop, with a right-running reef line adding shape on the better days. It is more of a winter check than a year-round guarantee, but clean southwest swell and east offshore wind can make it a worthwhile stop near Salcombe.
