The Beaches of West Cornwall - W11 - Holywell Bay
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 - 3 miles west of Newquay
The name of this beach comes from the fact that there are TWO Holy Wells in the village. The first is at Trevornick Valley, on the site of the Holywell Bay Leisure Park. The second well lies within a sea cave just where the beach meets the cliffs below The Kelseys at the north-eastern (Newquay) end of the beach. The cave can be explored but only with great care and on a falling tide, as it becomes completely filled at high tide !. It is not advisable to enter the cave alone and a good torch will be needed. Holywell Bay is a west facing fairly level beach, with large dunes and a small stream making up the back of the beach. There are lifeguard facilities in the summer season. Good cliff walks are possible all around here. West of Holywell Bay lies Perranporth reached by walking up the relatively steep coastpath to Penhale and Ligger Points. To the east lies Porth (Polly) Joke behind the flat headland of Kelsey Head, beyond that lies Crantock; The Gannel and Newquay.
