Tunnels - Ilfracombe is an aging holiday resort which was at its best during the Victorian era, although now is begining to show a new life. The Tunnels are passages hewn through the cliffs to a privately owned bathing beach. The Victorians also built up walls between rocks to make two bathing pools - One for ladies and one for gentlemen. There is a small charge to use the Tunnels.
