TOWAN BEACH

DESCRIPTION

PET FRIENDLY

PARKING

FACILITIES

The beach is popular with both families and surfers and although it is close to the heart of Newquay it is still one of the quieter beaches. There are rock pools to explore for the kids and you can walk to all the neighbouring beaches at low tide. It is also popular with beginner surfers.

High cliffs tower over the beach giving some protection from the worst winds, but also cast a shadow later in the afternoon so it is not always the best place for sunbathing.

Dogs welcome all year.

There are two car parks on either side of the Railway station.

Toilets, cafes, deck chair hire, surfboard hire and lifeguard cover during the summer months, disabled access
