Orcombe Point is a coastal feature near Exmouth, Devon, on the south coast of England. It lies about 16 km (9.9 mi) south of the city of Exeter, 3 km (1.9 mi) southeast of Exmouth town centre and about 12 km (7.5 mi) southwest of Sidmouth.

Directly to the west lies Exmouth Beach and to the east is Sandy Bay, a holiday beach, that can be reached either along the coastal path or through the large caravan park. The two beaches are part of a long strip of sand and are connected to each other below Orcombe Point at low tide.

The Jurassic Coast is a World Heritage Site on the English Channel coast of southern England. The Jurassic Coast stretches over a distance of 153 kilometres (95 mi), from Orcombe Point to Old Harry Rocks on the Isle of Purbeck in the east .

The rocks dip gently to the east. Due to this tilting and erosion the oldest exposed rocks are found here in the west, with progressively younger rocks forming the cliffs further east. The coastal exposures along the coastline provide a continuous sequence of Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous rock formations spanning approximately 185 million years of the Earths history. The localities along the Jurassic Coast includes a large range of important fossil zones.

Orcombe Point is the western end of the Jurassic Coast and the South West Coast Path includes the entire length of the Site
