Family Friendly Restaurants in St Ives
"Hidden in a white-sand cove at the foot of St Ives’ Island, this is the lesser-known little sister of the eminent Porthminster Café. A smaller, more relaxed version of its famous relative, here the best local ingredients are wrapped into dishes such as paella and moules marinière. As well as a kids’ menu and delicious cakes, its family-friendly credentials are boosted by nearby parking and outdoor seating overlooking the beautiful Blue Flag beach.www.porthgwiddencafe.co.uk"

A Guide to Newquays' Beaches
"One of the most famous beaches in Newquay; the self-proclaimed “Centre of British Surfing” is definitely worth a visit. As a west facing bay, it receives most of the swell which cause the waves and although is a “surfing beach” can be a little heavy for complete beginners, with big waves and rips that even the most seasoned surfers can find a little tricky. If you are lucky you may coincide your visit with one of the many surfing competitions that are hosted here throughout the year."

"This beach is iconic, and truly puts Newquay on the map when it comes to surfing. All of the big UK surfing competitions take place here, and if you look in advance you’ll be able to time your visit to watch the pro surfers do their thing – usually for free!. Of course, you don’t have to be a pro to go surfing at Fistral Beach."

Activities
"Gyllyngvase Beach is just a ten-minute stroll along the seafront and is the longest stretch of sand in Falmouth. Wander the coastal path from Gyllyngvase and it will take you along the cliffs to the next beach (Swanpool) in just five minutes. You can continue on a longer hike from here to Maenporth or just enjoy a coffee or a spot of lunch at Hooked on the Rocks at Swanpool where you can enjoy a slap up seafood delight."

"The child and dog friendly Scoff Troff Café has fast earned a great reputation in St Ives.
