Newquay and the surrounding area has so much to offer visitors, with a wide range of activities and attractions; why not explore the picturesque clifftops, walk along superb beaches or visit one of the local attractions such as the Zoo or Blue Reef Aquarium. 

In addition to the world famous Fistral beach (one of the best surfing beaches in the UK and Europe) there are numerous other sandy surfing beaches in the town and nearby including Crantock, Great Western, Holywell Bay, Lusty Glaze, Whipsiderry, Porth, The Gannel, The Harbour, Tolcarne, Towan and the equally famous Watergate Bay.

It may be better known for its surfing lifestyle, Cornish pasties and cream teas, but Newquay is also rich in rare species of plants and birds and boasts a diverse cultural, maritime and mining history.

Newquay town also has a great variety of bars, restaurants, cafes and takeaways with cuisine to suit everyone's tastes: Indian, Chinese, Thai, Mexican, Italian and French as well as fast-food and award winning Fish and Chips.  It is also host to a great shopping street where many well-known stores have a presence. Don’t forget to take a look at our Holiday Extras scheme which entitles you to a number of fantastic discounts at numerous restaurants in and around Newquay!
