Padstow is a charming fishing town and harbour that is rich in history and heritage. Whilst it can get busy, it is for good reason as the picturesque town has lots to see and experience. There are many attractive beaches and coves close to Padstow, too, including Bedruthan Steps, said to be the stepping stones of an ancient giant, and Constantine Bay, one of the best surfing beaches in the area.

View of the Camel Estuary from Padstow

Highlight • Trail

A glorious section of the Cost Path lies here at the Camel Estuary. From Padstow towards the sea you have great views - of Padstow and the harbor to Pentire Point. The path leads along the coast, over a dune landscape and up to Stepper Point.

St George's Cove

Highlight • Viewpoint

Just a half mile walk from Padstow will bring you to St George's Cove. At high tide there is just a small area of sand, it is low tide when the cove really gets to show off its best side. The golden sands are so vast you can walk all the way to Hawker's Cove and Harbour Cove.

Facing out into the Camel Estuary, it is lovely and sheltered but sadly it isn't a swimming beach, as tempting as it looks. The currents in the estuary are very strong and very dangerous. Enjoy the views over to Rock and Daymer Bay instead.
