The main cliff has the appearance of imminent collapse but be assured it has been that way for decades. It is home to some fine routes on solid limestone up soaring arêtes and corners, but also some daft ones which test optimism to the limit. In addition to single and multi-pitch climbs, a number of good deep water solos have been done on the seaward face.
The bouldering is covered in the Torquay Bouldering guide: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Vm6WZUh_AsUYaOy28XvonaaX-PfOWIZ-/view?usp=sharing
From Torquay's Harbour, follow signs for Daddyhole around its Marina, past the 'Living Coasts' bird sanctuary and up the hill. A number of signed turnings eventually lead to the Daddyhole car park.
Walk left (facing out) down steps and follow a small path off right. The Main Cliff now comes into view and a small, steep and narrow path on the right descends to the boulder-beach (care required). The base of the crag is a quick boulder-hop away.
