Newquay is one of Cornwall's most popular seaside destinations, offering a fantastic mix of golden beaches, coastal walks, excellent food and a laid-back surf culture. Whether you're seeking adventure or relaxation, there's something here for everyone.

For evenings out, The Secret Garden is a local favourite, serving delicious pizzas alongside creative cocktails in a relaxed setting. However, many visitors would argue that nothing beats an afternoon at Fistral Beach, Newquay's world-famous surfing destination. Here you'll find surf schools, board hire and some excellent places to eat, including The Stable, known for its fantastic pizzas and local ciders overlooking the ocean.
A walk along the South West Coast Path to Lewinnick Lodge is highly recommended. Perched on the cliffs, this stunning spot offers incredible sea views and a wonderful setting for lunch, dinner or sunset drinks.
Just beyond Newquay lies Crantock Beach, a beautiful expanse of sand backed by dunes and the Gannel Estuary. It's ideal for long walks, paddleboarding and escaping the busier beaches.
Other nearby attractions include Newquay Harbour, where you can join fishing trips or wildlife cruises, and the Blue Reef Aquarium, a great family day out. For nature lovers, nearby Watergate Bay offers spectacular scenery and excellent surfing conditions.
