OS Explorer Map 106 Newquay & PadstowOS Explorer Map 106 Newquay & Padstow

This map is part of the Ordnance Survey's Explorer series designed to replace the old Pathfinder map series. At 1:25,000 scale this detailed map shows a host of attractions including gardens which are open to the public, nature reserves and country parks as well as all official footpaths, bridleways, roads and lanes. Other facilities covered include: camping and caravan sites, picnic areas and viewpoints, selected places of interest, rights of way information for England and Wales, National Trail and Recreational Path routes, and selected tourist information. The series is aimed mainly at the experienced map user but can be used by tourists and locals alike.

Location: North Coast - Polzeath

Polzeath Surfer

Hayle Bay, Polzeath is a very popular surfing beach due to its west facing aspect. A broad expanse of fine golden sand is uncovered at low tide. Surfing is quite safe here and is recommended for beginners. Due to its popularity however, the beach can become crowded in summer. There are good cliff walks available, south to Daymer Bay or north around Pentire Point to the striking headland of The Rumps. Offshore lies Newland Island, a favourite destination for boat trips from nearby Padstow.
