Located near the River Camel Estuary is the small village of Polzeath. This village is a well known place for surfers and beach lovers to come and explore. Around Polzeath is many holiday cottages and throughout the small village are restaurants and pubs serving up fresh local fish from Padstow and nice cool Cornish Cider all day, so after you’re done with a coastal walk or relaxing on the beach, take a trip to the local establishments and support the locals that live in this village.
Tolcarne Beach is one of the bigger beaches which at low tide connects all neighbouring beaches together. Tolcarne is a steep walk down and the beach backs on to high cliffs which can protect you from the wind. At low tide it joins up with Great Western and Lusty Glaze but at high tide is cut off so please check tide times when visiting. This beach is a great family friendly beach but being located in Newquay it can get busy during summertime as its great for the family but please be careful as the cliffs are eroding at a fast rate so we advise not to sit underneath them if you can help it!
