Holywell Bay Newquay, England TR8 5PP

Harlyn Bay Beach, located just west of Padstow in Cornwall, is celebrated as one of the best family beaches in the region, offering a wide expanse of golden sand and pebbles, complemented by fascinating rock pools and backed by scenic dunes. The beach is a favorite among families, kayakers, and novice surfers, with local surf schools providing opportunities for surf lessons and various water activities.

Notably, Harlyn Bay features a horseshoe-shaped bay that produces excellent surfing conditions, particularly when the swell is high and winds are favorable. The site also has historical significance, with the remains of an iron age cemetery discovered nearby, further enriching the beach's allure for visitors.
