About Torquay
- Agatha Christie was born in Torquay in 1890 — the Agatha Christie Mile threads her landmarks along the bay, and Greenway, her summer home upriver, opens to visitors.
- Kents Cavern is one of Europe's most important prehistoric caves — human occupation stretches back half a million years, the oldest evidence in northwest Europe.
- Torquay's microclimate gives the bay its palms and subtropical gardens — the English Riviera is Britain's only UNESCO Global Geopark.
