• It’s 500m to Watergate Bay, one of the most consistent surf spots in Cornwall. During small swells Watergate Bay offers perfect beginner and longboard waves; and when the spring and winter swells roll in from the Atlantic it offers some of the best surf in Cornwall.
• Water temps range from 9-10C in winter to 15-18 in summer – so you’ll need at least a 3/2mm wetsuit in summer and 5/4mm in winter.
• You’re also just five miles from the beaches of Newquay – the UK’s surfing capital, where you can hit the waves at the famous Fistral Beach.

Watergate Bay’s two-mile beach is the epicentre of stylish family surfing holidays in Cornwall.

• Enjoy consistent waves, a huge expanse of sand for beach games and rock pooling (at the northern end) and a family-friendly line-up of cafés and restaurants.
• Take a low-tide walk to Whipsiderry beach and seek out the emerald cave pool.
• Just over the headland to the north is Mawgan Porth – a sandy, wave-lashed runway with excellent beachside amenities including cafés, a pub and beach equipment/ surf hire.
• Watergate Bay is just a 5-minute drive from Newquay’s vibrant huddle of beaches, including Lusty Glaze, Tolcarne, Great Western, Towan and the surfing mecca of Fistral.

Enjoy Cornwall’s smorgasbord of delicious food on the doorstep, or let us bring the restaurant to your luxury beach house, with gourmet deliveries. Not only can we provide grocery shopping (picking on the best local produce where we can), we will also manage the delivery of home-cooked meals and perfect picnics to be enjoyed in picturesque locations. We can even organise coastal cookouts, with a fire on the beach, Cornish lobster and toasted marshmallows.   Watergate Bay is home to a huddle of surfside restaurants including:

• The Living Space is a relaxed all-day food and drink venue where you can sink into a comfy sofa, bask on the deck or take a seat at a sea-view table for coffee, cocktails and seasonal grazing dishes.
• The Beach Hut, Watergate Bay is the perfect spot to hang out surfside and feast on cracking sea views. Sandy feet are welcome in this trendy on-the-beach diner where you can grab a legendary burger, warm up with an Extreme Hot Chocolate or tuck into bistro favourites and succulent local seafood.

ON THE DOORSTEP Personally, we’re never more that a couple of footsteps from the beach, but whether you’re looking for beach life, scenery of something a bit different, here are a few family friendly things to do nearby:

• Walk along the cliff-top coast path from Watergate Bay to Porth, stand on the end of Porth Island and look for the blowhole, and pause for coffee and cake at Roos Beach <insert link: https://roosbeach.co.uk/pages/new-coffee-shop-page&gt;. If it’s low tide, stroll back along the beach from Whipsiderry to Watergate Bay.
• Go on a coastal walk from neighbouring Mawgan Porth to Bedruthan Steps, taking a cream tea stop at Carnewas Tea Rooms.
• If you’ve got surf and skate crazy kids, head into Newquay and ride the Concrete Waves of the skate park.
• Experience the vibrant beach culture of the UK’s surfing capital.
• Checkout the underwater life without getting your hair wet when you visit the Blue Reef Aquarium.
• Head to Newquay Zoo to see over 100 species of wildlife from lions to poison dart frogs.
