Tolcarne Beach

Tolcarne Beach is a beach situated in Newquay, Cornwall, UK, renowned for its striking colors and clear waters. Though parking can be difficult and costly, the beach offers exceptional water quality, a surfing school, and pleasant dining options. The surfing school is particularly suited for beginners due to its protected location. While beach apartments offer an impressive view, they may come at a high cost.

The water is ideal for both surfing and swimming, and at low tide, the beach joins with three others to form a mile-long stretch of sand. The beach can be accessed by a steep set of steps carved into the cliff, and free roadside parking is available. On-site amenities include restrooms, a lifeguard, and various dining options.
