An evidence-based, investigative approach focuses on Bude's main beaches and its fascinating geology of international reputation. Bude Harbour and the history of The Port of Bude are also examined in detail highlighting the important role that Bude Canal has played in Bude's growth of trade in the 18th and 19th centuries and in its later regeneration of Bude's travel and tourism industry. The arrival of the railway at the end of the Victorian period in the late 19th century was especially important as it brought rapid growth to the popular health and seaside/surfing destination. The Bude community has continued to preserve, conserve and thereby enhance its environment by for example, local nature reserves - a bird-watcher, twitcher-paradise Whilst fishermen enjoy coarse fishing bass, bream, carp, roach, rudd, and trout] and sea fishing dogfish, mackerel, mullet, pollack and thornback ray.] The Bude coastal area continues adapting to the changing demands of tourism by its good mixture of independent shops, attractions, parkland and public services and by the provision of sensitively located, good quality self-catering accommodation.
