Galmpton Creek

Home to Greenway Estate, Agatha Christie’s holiday home, Galmpton is a rural village on the Kingswear side of the River Dart. This wonderful and idyllic village attracts many locals and visitors due to its attractive riverside location. 

Galmpton Creek proposes a slightly different wild swimming location compared to the ones mentioned above. Swimming in the River Dart is most definitely allowed and incredibly enjoyable, but remember to be cautious of moving boats and strong currents. 

You can also swim on the opposite side of the river from Galmpton at Dittisham, another pretty village on the River Dart.
