Combe Martin is a coastal village and electoral ward in North Devon, Devon, England. Nestled in a steep-sided comb and facing a small sheltered bay, it sits on the South West Coast Path at the eastern edge of Exmoor, with limestone cliffs noted for fossils and striking coastal scenery.
The local economy leans heavily on tourism alongside small-scale fishing and village services, with a compact high street, holiday accommodation and attractions such as a local dinosaur museum and maritime heritage. The community retains visible historic ties to mining and smuggling and supports a lively calendar of seasonal events and traditional fairs that keep social life active outside the summer season.
