The most beautiful natural sites to discover Newquay

The beaches surround Newquay. To the south, Fistral Beach, considered the main beach, is worth bathing, but especially for surfing. In the summer there are numerous competitions. In the north, Great Western Beach is popular with surfers, Tolcarne Beach and Lusty Glaze Beach attract more bathers. A little further, in Watergate Bay, there is again a question of testing the wave. Each beach has cafés, toilets and rescue swimmers. Beware, however, at high tide, beaches are almost entirely covered and tourists are often surprised!

On foot from Newquay town center, follow the coast along the natural byways of the South West Coast Path. You'll pass The Huer's Hut, a ^14th-century white stone hut where a "crier" used to sound the alarm about approaching shoals of sardines. The view over Newquay's beaches is magnificent. Continue on to Headland and its belvedere. The scent of the plants and the fresh air along the walk are a real change of scenery. Come at the end of the day to enjoy an incredible sunset.
