East Devon District Council says it will be closed temporarily, external so rocks at the revetment can be replenished.
The work has to be done now so birds are not disturbed in the winter.
Quote MessageWe do appreciate how important access to the water is for visitors and local residents and we will endeavour to limit disruption as much as we can. These works to the sea wall are essential to ensure it remains sound long into the future and it will complement the Environment Agency tidal defences, which are planned to start next year. The timing of the works does not fit well with end of summer potential use of the slipway, but we are restricted by the issues surrounding migrating birds and fish."

The sighting of Asian hornets in Cornwall is "concerning", a university professor says.
Bee inspectors have been carrying out surveillance around the area in Fowey where the bee-killing invasive species was sighted, the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (Defra) said.
Surveillance and monitoring in a 1-2km radius area around the initial sighting spot of the insect is being carried out.
Professor Juliet Osborne, from the University of Exeter, a leading expert on Asian hornets, said: "Last year a nest was found in Devon, and the year before in Gloucestershire.
"This suggests that further sightings, particularly in the South West of the UK, are highly likely and we must all be vigilant.
"It is an invasive species providing a major new emerging threat to our beleaguered pollinator populations."
Work to create a new coast path link between Penrose and Porthleven is now complete, eight months after a major cliff collapse forced its closure.
The new route is more than 2,100ft (650m) long and has been designed to blend into the exposed coastal landscape.
Another 1,640ft (500m) of new bridleway has been created for horse riders and cyclists as part of the project.
The path is open with the bridleway link being opened on Friday.
The work cost more than £40,000.
Quote MessageIt's been a real challenge to create a route that works for people and also respects the natural landscape, archaeology, wildlife and also works for our farm tenant. We know how much people value this route and Penrose generally, and as a charity we are really grateful for the public support and encouragement we have received throughout the work."

Read MoreA £1m plan to regenerate part of Paignton town centre has been put on hold because of a council spending squeeze.
The improvements to the Station Square area would have been funded by taking out a 25-year loan, but Torbay Council said it could not be confident of making repayments of between £63,000 and £65,000 a year to the government-funded Public Works Loan Board.
Conservative elected mayor Gordon Oliver was advised to postpone the scheme.
The mayor agreed, but added that the scheme should be considered for next year's budget.
A group of Plymouth Argyle supporters allegedly took part in a mass brawl with Exeter City fans after stopping off in Exeter on the way back from an away match in April 2017, a court has heard.
The Argyle fans were returning from a 1-1 draw at Portsmouth and, after police stopped them confronting Pompey fans, they got off a train at Exeter instead of carrying on to catch a connection to Plymouth, Exeter Crown Court was told.
They walked through the centre of Exeter to the King Billy pub, which was full of City supporters celebrating a 2-1 win over Barnet, and fighting broke out moments after they arrived, prosecutors said.
CCTV camera inside and outside the pub filmed much of the violence, which included people being hit over the head with bottles and punched in the face, the jury was told.
Four Plymouth supporters and three Exeter fans are on trial.
The seven - from Exeter, Plymouth and Weston-super-Mare, and aged between 25 and 55 - all deny affray and say they were acting in self defence.
The trial continues.

A four-month-old puppy is to become the UK’s first defusing therapy dog and will support firefighters across Devon and Somerset.
Digby, an Australian Labradoodle, is the latest recruit at Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service, external.
He will work with fire crews in critical incident defusing sessions, which help prevent crews suffering from long-term psychological damage after traumatic incidents.
The puppy will also provide contact with vulnerable people in schools, hospices and hospitals.
Digby attended his first session following a serious crash on the A35 near Honiton in July, where he worked alongside his handler.
Training manager Matt Goodman said: “The use of therapy dogs has been scientifically proven to help people who have been exposed to traumatic situations, or who are dealing with very challenging situations in their lives, such as ill health or learning ability.”

A former Exeter restaurant and part of a city centre car park could both be used this winter as homeless shelters.
Exeter City Council planners on Monday night unanimously approved plans to transform the former Spice Island restaurant on Magdalen Street into a "winter night shelter and community facility for homeless people".
They also approved a large temporary outbuilding and a toilet block to be built in the corner of Howell Road car park.
Homeless support organisation Julian House, which will lead the scheme, said it was "essential" as the city "faces challenges with around 20 to 30 rough sleepers a night".
The Hotel Du Vin, opposite the former restaurant, had objected, saying it "could lead to anti-social behaviour and guests could be intimidated if large groups of people gathered outside the facility, causing them to take their business elsewhere".
However, the plans were backed by councillors, with Cllr Phil Bilayk saying that the hotel was being overprotective of its guests and that homeless people were no more anti-social that anyone else.

A planning application has gone in for a new 161-bed hotel to replace the closed Park Hotel, which was rated as one of the worst places to stay in Paignton.
New owner the Fragrance Hotel Group wants to demolish the three-storey terrace of Victorian villas and redevelop the site overlooking Paignton Green, the beach and pier.
The 47-bedroom hotel on Esplanade Road is one of three the Singapore-based group has bought in Torbay.
It also owns the closed Palace Hotel at Babbacombe and the Corbyn Head Hotel on Torquay seafront, which is being operated by a management company.
A separate planning application has been lodged to demolish the hotel.
Both applications will be decided by Torbay Council in due course after a public consultation.

A challenge set on Radio 1 to get a pasty hitchhiked from Cornwall to Scotland is now well into its second day.
It came about when a listener called Sarah from Aberdeenshire told Greg James, the breakfast show presenter, that she had never eaten a pasty.
His team contacted the Chough bakery in Padstow who made a pasty at 03:00 on Monday before it started its 675-mile route with a short hop on board the ferry to Rock.
It has since had stops in Launceston, Bude, Bideford, Barnstaple, Bristol, Gloucester and Tamworth.
You can track its progress on the Radio 1 website - it is currently in the Midlands.
