It's Not Just Surfing
Regardless of age or interests Newquay has lots on offer. Whether you enjoy walking, great views, pretty seaside towns, speciality shops, local history, relaxing on the beach or maybe something a bit more energetic, Newquay and the surrounding area has it all in abundance.
For many people, a holiday isn't a holiday without a beach and with eight perfect ones all within walking distance, the choice is wide.
All the beaches have excellent facilities, golden sand and caves and rock pools to explore but if you want to check out the country’s top surfers then head for Fistral. Fistral is the stage for all major UK surfing competitions and is famous for big waves.
