SEE THE CRASHING SHORELINE OF THE UK’S SURF CAPITAL

Sheltered by the grassy sand dunes, you take a sip from your chilled drink and gaze out past rows of surfers riding glassy walls of waves, while the amber sun sinks to a slither.

World famous for its stupendous surf and spirit, holidays in Fistral invite you to dive headfirst into the action- just grab a board and get amongst the swell foamy water, before peeling some fire-pit flamed king prawns and sampling a cocktail at the iconic beachside restaurant complex.

Across the cliff top path towards Little Fistral and its surrounding coves, you’ll discover a more leisurely feel. Sand and shingle spill out between barnacle-dotted pools, perfect for carving out a secret space which feels like it belongs only to you, away from the busy chatter of the main bay.

Fancy stretching your legs? Wait for low tide and take a stroll around the headland, past Newquay’s historical Huer’s Hut and towards the town’s seven beaches, rewarding yourself with an ice cream when you’re done. Watergate Bay is just a 10-minute drive away with its rolling surf and eateries, or Perranporth and its quirky shops can also be reached by car. Self catering holidays in Fistral put you in the heart of Cornwall, meaning there’s plenty to explore near and far.
