Newquay - the coast of dreams and surf
Newquay – the coast of dreams – represents a rare mix of wonderful coastlines; spectacular beaches washed clean by the Atlantic Ocean; rock pools teeming with marine life; crystal-clear sea for a leisurely swim, or for the challenge of surfing the best sets in Britain; soaring cliffs with magnificent views; and delightful gardens for tranquil strolls.
Walking, cycling, golf, horse- riding, bowling, tennis, fishing, kite surfing, wakeboarding, diving, power kiting or abseiling, plus a host of indoor and outdoor attractions in Newquay and the surrounding area – there’s something here for everyone.
Newquay has lots of interesting things for all ages to see and do. There is a Sea Life Centre, Golf Course, Zoo, and plentiful nightlife.
The Huer's House, on the headland west of the harbour, is of interest.
Newquay was renowned for Pilchard fishing, which came in plentiful numbers but at infrequent intervals.
Towan Beach,Newquay
Until the late 19th century a man known as a Huer, would watch
from the house for the shoals to redden the waters, the sign that Pilchards were in the bay.
He then gave a great cry of 'Heva! Heva!' to alert the fishermen of the town.
