Exmouth RNLI Open Day

Sunday 16 August, 2026

10.00am – 4.00pm

Exmouth RNLI Lifeboat Station

Join us for a special Open Day at Exmouth RNLI Lifeboat Station. Meet the crew, look around the station, enjoy live entertainment, food and refreshments, and find out more about the lifesaving work of the RNLI, and others!

Station Tours

Tours will run throughout the day, with the first tour departing at 10.00am.

If you would like to join a tour later in the day, bookings will be available from 9.45am.

The final tour will depart at 3.00pm.

Tours will be led by our volunteer crew members, giving you the opportunity to hear first-hand about our lifeboats, the station, and some of the rescues they have been involved in.

As tours are expected to be popular, we recommend arriving early to avoid disappointment.

Tours can be booked on the day. Simply speak to one of our volunteers, who will be happy to help.
