At the end of Mortehoe village just opposite the footpath to Rockham Bay is North Morte Well. This is attractive as it is set in a wall of natural stone, it is now used as a wishing well.
The walk to Rockham Bay is recommended as it is secluded and quiet although the steps the beach are quite steep. There are plenty or rock pools to be explored and makes much fun for hours for kids.

From Rockham Bay you can take a walk along the coastal path to Morte Point. The path runs at a low level around the headland and as you reach the tip there are some great views towards Woolacombe and Baggy Point, if you are lucky you may even be able to spot the seals in the sea.
Off the coast of Rockham Bay many ships have been shipwrecked on the jagged rocks. During the winter of 1852 five ships were lost.
