"Wet Feet?" Walking Newquay's Beaches from the Harbour to Porth, Cornwall walk

We start in Newquay harbour, exploring some of its fascinating history. We find answers to questions like: how old is Newquay Harbour? Why is there a central pier that seems to go nowhere? What was that tunnel used for?
With it being a low, spring tide, we were able to walk through the harbour entrance and join Towan Beach. After dreaming of the romantic situation of The Island House, we pick up the pace and pass Tolcarne Beach, and Lusty Glaze beach but will we be able to make it around the headland to Porth - is this the pinch point?
NB: If you are thinking of following this route, please check your tide times and make sure it is a spring tide.
The standard description bit…
We are Sarah and Andrew and we film our walks around Cornwall and publish on YouTube, usually weekly. Sometimes we stay in accommodation in Cornwall and upload our vlog. Sarah is fascinated by sea glass and likes to collect it so there may be the occasional sea glass video too. The channel is a hobby and we both have normal day jobs!
Frequently asked questions:
What camera do we use?
Since December 2018 we have used: Canon Powershot G7x MkII
How do I find the books you use?
Most are still in print although some we pick up in charity shops and may be available on Amazon secondhand. Please refer to the video for the book titles. Every video shows the book three times. Sorry but we can’t put a link in every description.
Best time of year to visit Cornwall?
We love May, June for flora and fauna, July and September for spectacular scenery.
What is your dog’s name?
Sorry but we do not release the name of our dog, perhaps you can make up your own name for him.

What a great video, after growing up in Newquay i emigrated to Australia in early 1990 - it was wonderful showing my kids here where i grew up - one day i shall again do that walk.

Thank you so much, that was a beautiful walk, that I didn’t want to end. Well done 👍

Love it! We moved down last summer to Porth and really love walking the beaches and the island!

Memories galore as you venture across Newquay beaches. Pam & I once stayed at the Edgcliffe hotel, long gone as it was too near the edge.

Only just discovered your YouTube channel can I say how interesting, and lovely to see the lovely country side and the sea. Lots of interest in what you say so well done and thank you very much.

Such nostalgia watching this video having holidayed in Newqay & Crantock every year bar a few since early 1960s up until 2 years ago , now living in Thailand greetings from a sunny 30 c beach

Oh wow, thank you, that brought back such fabulous memories of us holidaying in Newquay with our family from when me and my now husband first met at age 17 until we had a family of our own. We walked that route regularly, and stayed at many many self catering apartments. We stopped going when it all became too commercialised with the hen & stag do days, such a shame. Wow 50 years ago when we first started going.

Another great and entertaining walk. 🚶♂️ 🚶♀️

Just saw your walk around Newquay Sarah, your walk along the beach is something we have never done, so that was a highlight.Never knew about the bridge over to the island as well. Loved your history lesson too, very interesting and Andrews jokes of course, well done and take care.💕
