The are a wide variety of beaches nearby, Holywell Bay, Porth Joke, Cantrock, Fistral, Towan, Great Western, Tolcarne, Lusty Glaze, Porth and Watergate Bay which all have their own distinct features.

Fistral beach is only five minutes walk form the apartment and is Newquay's main surfing beach. For anyone wishing to learn to surf there are a number of surf schools that offer tuition at Fistral including the BSA.

Headland point is situated on the edge of the coastal footpath and is an execellent starting point for walks to Towan Head, across Fistral to Pentire Head or into Newquay town centre and beyond towards Watergate Bay.
