When visiting Dartmouth with your family there are plenty of activities to keep your little ones entertained. Why not plan your visit to coincide with one of the family friendly events that run every year.
The region’s events often take inspiration from their surroundings. You’ll find ones that follow a nautical theme, celebrate local produce or get you close to nature, plus much more.
Many attractions put on special events to coincide with key holiday times. So if you’re visiting in the school holidays or during special occasions, such as Fathers and Mother’s day, be sure to check out the events on offer.
Take a look through the events below and begin planning your family adventure.
