A smaller, more relaxed version of its famous relative, here the best local ingredients are wrapped into dishes such as paella and moules marinière.

"One of the most famous beaches in Newquay; the self-proclaimed “Centre of British Surfing” is definitely worth a visit. As a west facing bay, it receives most of the swell which cause the waves and although is a “surfing beach” can be a little heavy for complete beginners, with big waves and rips that even the most seasoned surfers can find a little tricky. If you are lucky you may coincide your visit with one of the many surfing competitions that are hosted here throughout the year."

"This beach is iconic, and truly puts Newquay on the map when it comes to surfing. All of the big UK surfing competitions take place here, and if you look in advance you’ll be able to time your visit to watch the pro surfers do their thing – usually for free!. Of course, you don’t have to be a pro to go surfing at Fistral Beach."

"The smallest and most secluded of the beaches in St Ives, Bamaluz is tucked in between Porthgwidden and the harbour. Its sand is only exposed at low tide, and you can reach it by descending the steps opposite St Ives Museum. Bamaluz is the only of St Ives’ beaches that is dog-friendly all year round, so you can bring your canine friends, but note there are no facilities or lifeguard services."

"At high tide, it’s not accessible but at low tide, you can walk across to nearby Porthminster Beach. This beach is sandy and rocky and located behind the Church of St Ia, on the northern side is the RNLI lifeboat station."
