North Cornwall

Regions of Cornwall
Exposed to the full force of the Atlantic, much of North Cornwall is shaped by powerful seas and wide sandy beaches, making it one of the county’s prime surfing regions. Weather conditions can change quickly and dramatically along the coast, adding to its raw and energetic character.
Cornwall’s rugged north coast, where dramatic cliffs, legendary surf beaches and big skies define the landscape.
