Newquay beach and headland at golden hour with Atlantic surf

West Cornwall

Newquay

Atlantic surf, headlands and a coast that works all year

Newquay is the Atlantic coast at full volume: Fistral and Watergate for surf, Crantock and Holywell for dunes and quiet sand, and a town that has grown a serious food, coffee and wellbeing scene behind the beaches.

It is also the gateway to the north coast villages, with Mawgan Porth, Perranporth and St Agnes all within easy reach for walking, riding, driving and eating well.
