Find Out MoreThis beach’s sheltered shallow waters and close proximity to Newquay town centre make it popular with families. In the summer the harbour is busy with fishing boats which draws in the occasional seal looking for leftovers.
Find Out MoreThe most central of Newquay’s beaches, Towan beach is sheltered by Towan head creating smaller waves, perfect for novice surfers or swimmers. Behind the beach you can find lots of facilities, including Blue Reef Aquarium and SSS Surf School.
Find Out MoreOn the sandy Lusty Glaze you can find an adventure centre with activities such as abseiling, surfing, bungee jumping and climbing. Accessibility to the beach is difficult due to a steep path down but it’s still popular with families.
