With credits crunching and economies sliding get on down to the north coast of Cornwall, arguably England's best slice of coast. I based myself at Newquay from where there is any number of adrenalin sports waiting to be experienced. I cantered on a horse across the Gannel estuary and beach Saturday morning, coasteered and zipwired along Lusty Glaze beach Saturday afternoon while Sunday wasn't lazy at all, being spent on fabulous Watergate Bay kitesurfing and bodyboarding. Superb!
You could try, as I did, www.visitnewquay.org, a great little site with all the info you need for a trip.
Most people associate Fistral, Newquay as the main surfing location in Cornwall as many of Britain’s top surfing competitions are held in Newquay (over the summer when it is normaly flat). The Cornish coast has many surf breaks from St Agnes (badlands) on the north coast to Cabbage Patch (secret spots) on the south coast.
The most popular saying by any surfer is "you should have been here earlier" "it was goin' off".
