The best time to visit Porlock Weir is typically during the late spring (May to June) and early autumn (September to October) months.During these periods, you'll experience milder weather, which is great for enjoying the outdoors without the intense heat or larger crowds of the peak summer season. The days are generally long enough for exploration, and the natural beauty of the Exmoor National Park, with its coastal paths and wooded valleys, is particularly stunning. This is also a good time for wildlife spotting, especially birds along the coast.For those who enjoy walking and hiking, these months offer ideal conditions. The famous South West Coast Path runs right through Porlock Weir, and the cooler temperatures make for a more comfortable trek along the coastal cliffs or inland through the Exmoor landscape. You'll find the local pubs and cafes welcoming without being overly busy, making for a relaxed experience.Summer (July and August) is also a popular time, especially for families looking for traditional seaside holidays. While it can be busier, the extended daylight hours and warmer sea temperatures are great for crabbing in the harbour or enjoying the pebble beach.
