Gwithian Towans occupy the 'middle section' of Hayle Sands. Lying between Hayle's Upton Towans and the rockier beaches of Godrevy, with it's lighthouse, Gwithian Towans are backed by sand dunes with a myriad of well marked descents. There is the excellent Sunset Surf Cafe here where surfboards can be hired. Rock pools, caves and gullys are plentiful, although care should be taken not to be cut off by the tide with no landward exits. Beach walking can be quite relaxing too as long as the state of the tide has been taken into account! In favourable conditions there can also be quite decent surf for those wishing to bodyboard or longboard, although certain stretches can be quite rocky. Local knowledge of the conditions and currents should be requested if you are on holiday or a novice. The proximity to the towns of Camborne and Redruth can make this area quite busy on weekends with those wishing to avoid the rat-race. Godrevy Lighthouse a short distance to the north makes this one of the most readily recognisable areas of West Cornwall. The headland across the bay is St. Ives. Why not take a trip over and look back to Godrevy and the rest of the North Coast from there?
