Plymouth Hoe - Plymouth - Devon - England - 4K Virtual Walk

Join us for an evening walk around Plymouth, Devon, England, UK. Our walk starts on Plymouth Hoe with beautiful scenic views across Plymouth Sound and Drake's Island. We take a look at Smeaton's Tower Lighthouse, Plymouth Naval Memorial and Tinside Lido. We walk along Hoe Road and Madeira Road where we see the Royal Citadel, a dramatic 17th century fortress built to defend the coastline from the Dutch, still in use by the military today. Our walk finishes in Elphinstone Car Park with views across Plymouth Sound.

Plymouth Hoe, referred to locally as the Hoe, is a large south facing open public space in the English coastal city of Plymouth, Devon, UK. The Hoe is adjacent to and above the low limestone cliffs that form the seafront and it commands views of Plymouth Sound, Drake's Island, and across the Hamoaze to Mount Edgcumbe in Cornwall.
Plymouth Hoe is perhaps best known for the story that Sir Francis Drake played his famous game of bowls here in 1588 while waiting for the tide to change before sailing out with the English fleet to engage with the Spanish Armada.
A prominent landmark on the Hoe is Smeaton's Tower. This is the upper portion of John Smeaton's Eddystone Lighthouse, which was originally built in 1759 on the Eddystone Rocks, located 14 miles to the south. The tower was dismantled in 1877 and rebuilt on Plymouth Hoe in Plymouth, Devon, where it stands today. The lighthouse is one of Plymouth's most iconic tourist attractions.
Smeaton's Tower overlooks Tinside Lido, an unusual 1935 Art Deco pool which sits upon the limestone shoreline at the base of the cliff. It is sited beside Plymouth Sound and is overlooked by Plymouth Hoe and Smeaton's Tower. The lido is open in the summer months between May and September.
A statue of Sir Francis Drake was placed on Plymouth Hoe in 1884 to commemorate him. There are also several war memorials along the northern side of the Hoe. The largest commemorates the Royal Naval dead of the two world wars; its central obelisk was unveiled in 1924, while the surrounding sunken garden was added in 1954. The Armada Memorial was opened in 1888 to celebrate the tercentenary of the Spanish Armada.
The Hoe also includes a long broad tarmacked promenade which serves as a spectacular military parade ground and which is often used for displays by Plymouth-based Royal Navy, Royal Marines, the Army garrison, as well as for travelling funfairs and open-air concerts.
The Hoe is a popular area for Plymothians and visitors. There is always a great deal of activity on the water, including frequent warship movements, ferries going and coming from France and Spain, fishing trawlers and a swarm of larger and smaller sailing boats. The Fastnet yacht race ends here. The annual two day British Firework Championships attracts tens of thousands of spectators.
The Plymouth Dome, a turreted and domed building, built into a small old quarry site above Tinside as an historical theme tourist attraction, failed to obtain sufficient funding and closed in 2006, despite having been visited by 2.3 million people. Between 2013 and 2016 it was a restaurant owned by celebrity chef Gary Rhodes.
Drake's Island is a 6.5-acre island lying in Plymouth Sound, the stretch of water south of the city of Plymouth, Devon. The rocks which make up the island are volcanic tuff and lava, together with marine limestone of the Devonian period. For more than 400 years the island was fortified.
The Royal Citadel in Plymouth, Devon, England, was built in the late 1660s. It is at the eastern end of Plymouth Hoe overlooking Plymouth Sound, and encompasses the site of the earlier fort that had been built in the time of Sir Francis Drake.
