Polzeath
Polzeath – recently described by the Sunday Times as being at the thumping heart of Cornwall cool, offers the very best in seaside holidays.
The beach, one of the few Blue Flag beaches in Cornwall, is a vast expanse of sand which opens into the Atlantic at the mouth of the Camel Estuary. Surfing is top of the agenda at Polzeath - but it is surfing for everyone, from the beginner to the accomplished – everyone can catch a wave as they roll onto the North Cornwall Coast.
But don’t worry if surfing isn’t for you – Polzeath is the perfect place to get some sand between your toes, relax and recline as the kids explore the safe sands and rockpools.
Nestling at the top of the beach, there are beachside boutiques, ice-cream parlours restaurants, pubs and shops and surf schools.
Polzeath is the location for the UK’s first Voluntary Marine Wildlife Reserve providing events and activities around the areas unique sea life and promoting an understanding of life at the ocean’s edge.
