One of the nation’s favourite seaside resorts, holidays in Newquay offer something for everyone. Whether you’re dreaming of an action-packed family holiday or a super surf break, this vibrant coastal town has it all.
Wherever you stay in Newquay, you’re never far from a beach. And with twelve sweeping, sandy bays to choose from, there’s something for everyone. From iconic Fistral beach and popular Towans in the centre of town, to Watergate Bay and Lusty Glaze, you can build sandcastles, sunbathe, swim and surf 'til your heart’s content.
A holiday in Newquay wouldn’t be complete without going for a surf. Known as the surf capital of the UK, both beginners and pros flock to Newquay for its consistent swell. You’ll find plenty of surf schools and hire shops, as well as the Boardmasters Festival which takes place every August and sees professional surfers compete in the World Surf League competition on Fistral beach, followed by a popular music festival at Watergate Bay.
If you’re planning a family holiday in Newquay, you’ll be spoilt for choice with plenty of things to do, no matter the weather. On rainy days, visit the Blue Reef Aquarium, Newquay Zoo or Lappa Valley Steam Railway. For outdoor adventures, there’s an abundance of watersport opportunities, plus the South West Coast Path runs through the town so you can set off and walk for miles along the cliff tops, discovering new beaches, abundant wildlife and spectacular sea views.
You’ll find no shortage of places to eat and drink in Newquay. Tuck into fish ’n’ chips on the beach, enjoy a pint of real Cornish ale in one of the traditional old pubs or dance the night away until the early hours in one of Newquay’s nightclubs and bars.
With a train station and airport with regular flights from London, you can easily book a short break in Newquay. Escape the hustle and bustle of the city on a Friday and find sand between your toes on Saturday morning. And there’s no need to only visit in the summer.
