About

Newquay West covers the northwestern edge of Newquay town where the coastline turns into a series of cliffs and headlands. The area includes Fistral Beach, a long north-facing sand bay with reef and beach breaks that attract surfers year round; national and international surfing events have been held there. The South West Coast Path runs along the headland, giving direct access to the cliffs, rock platforms and small tidal pools that reveal local marine life at low tide. Housing and narrow streets rise from the seafront toward the commercial strip, with a mix of shops, cafes and lifeguard stations supporting beach activity.

Away from the seafront, streets lead to community facilities and transport links that connect the area to the town centre and wider Cornish network. Seasonal parking and visitor services concentrate near the main beach access points. Local traders and surf schools base operations close to the sand, and the pattern of development reflects decades of seaside trade and seasonal tourism. Residents use nearby schools, health services and green spaces within walking distance of the coastline.
