A snapshot of Newquay in autumn by: @steph__andr
"Lukas has been volunteering with @waveprojectuk to give surf therapy to kids who need it, so Winston and I grabbed a smoothie from @nalucoffeehouse and spent a couple of hours on Great Western Beach while Lukas was in the sea. Had a quick hot choc from @greatwesternbeach and then FINALLY made it over to @rosa_nqy - I’ve been meaning to go since they opened back in summer, but life got in the way! The Sunday roast was delicious, and it was an added bonus to be able to sit outside. Will definitely be back to try their regular menu 👌🏼"
As the darker evenings settle in at Fistral, October brings breathtaking sunsets, rolling swells, and golden headlands. The pace slows, but the beauty of Fistral Beach only gets better. It’s the perfect time to escape and unwind by the sea.
With darker mornings and rainy days setting in, we’re not quite ready to let go of summer just yet. Here’s to reminiscing about those distant longer days, fiery sunsets, sea dips, and soaking up the best of Newquay’s coastal life.
Here’s our round-up of some of our favourite places for a decent cocktail in Newquay (IG tags!):

Fistral in September hits differently! Fewer crowds, warmer water, and sunsets that make you stop and take it all in. Whether you’re surfing or just walking the beach, this time of year has a vibe all on its own. If you know, you know.
Sea dip season is all year round 🌊

"Being able to get in the sea so frequently is the perfect way to wash away a bad day, celebrate a good one & even just appreciate everything home has to offer!"
We’ll let the video do the talking…
Summer bliss in Newquay 💧✨

Where’s your go-to place? After an action-packed day on Fistral Beach, catching the surf and soaking in the buzz, we like to take a short walk just a few minutes away to the River Gannel. Here, you’ll find tranquility and the perfect spot to sit back, unwind or just float along on your paddleboard.
Today, on a sunny day in Newquay, there's nothing better than strolling across the bays at low tide from Lusty Glaze all the way to Newquay Harbour. Along the way explore the rock pools teeming with marine life, and enjoy the crystal-clear water, perfect for a dip. End your journey at Fistral Beach, where you can relax and take in one of its legendary sunsets.
Experience a day of fun at Newquay Harbour! Enjoy calm waters for bathing and paddleboarding, watch fishermen bring in their daily catch, and savour a fantastic range of street foods at The Boathouse with stalls like @saltyardpizza, @poppys_paella, @babettrcornwall, and @load_a_waffle. Head down for an unforgettable summer day out! ☀️

The serenity of a misty spring morning here at Newquay harbour, where at 6am we caught a glimpse of the local fishermen setting off for their daily catch, sailing through the sea mist, towards the sun.
