Things to do in Exmouth during October School Holidays are plentiful in and around town. In October the sun is very warm as is the water at Town Beach. Take the children down to the beach for a swim and play. Just outside of Exmouth is Pebble Beach where you can find some glorious colourful pebbles. Children can fish from the beach or at the nearby Marina off the rocks (with caution the rocks can be slippy). Bundegi Jetty is a good place during October for the children to catch squid that are running.
