Surfing

Cornwall is the perfect place to discover some incredible coves and sheltered beaches for a dip in the sea. Why not try Stithians Lake, Carbis Bay or Gylly beach? The Lizard peninsula also has some super hidden spots where you’re unlikely to bump into another swimmer, although you might see a seal. Many of our local beaches have RNLI lifeguards too. The Jubilee pool in Penzance is a fantastic day out – a lido in a stunning location with superb views over St Michael’s Mount. If you’d prefer a flume, wave pools, slides or jacuzzi, we’d recommend the Ships and Castles Leisure Centre in Falmouth, just a few miles from Caddy’s. There are also several other pools and spas nearby, just let us know what you’re looking for and we’ll point you in the right direction.

Surf, body board, wind surf, kite surf, belly board – so much choice just a short drive from Caddy’s Corner. There are plenty of surf schools and places to hire boards and wetsuits across Cornwall; we can guarantee that both regular surfers and absolute beginners are very well provided for. Caddy’s Corner is the perfect base for watersports, as whatever the swell and wind combination you’re in luck with only a short drive to the north, south or far west coasts of Cornwall. We’re avid surfers ourselves and might even let you in on a couple of secret spots! There are also plenty of competitions that take place across the county, if you’d like to watch the pros just let us know and we’ll point you in the right direction. We’d love to help you enjoy the surf in Cornwall.

Cornwall has so many beaches to choose from – pirate hideaways, fishermen’s coves, miles and miles of golden sand perfect for walks, picnics, sandcastles and watersports. Here are just some of our favourites – Cadgwith for watching crabs being landed, Porthtowan for rock pooling, Sennen for sunbathing, Godrevy for seal watching, Kynance for the azure blue water, Chapel Porth for the coastal path, and Porthcurno for its sheer beauty. We could go on. We can help you pick your beach out of the wind, just ask us for our thoughts on where best to go or enjoy exploring and discovering yourselves.

Whether you’re looking for mountain bike routes, long stretches of coastal lanes or a skate park, you can find it in Cornwall. Explore the coast-to-coast route and the old tramways of the mining era. Perhaps spend a day on the Camel Trail which takes you along a level estuary ending in Padstow, a great day out from Caddy’s Corner. We also have some Adrenalin fueling mountain bike trails very close by and a number of great skate and bike parks that will keep you entertained! From spectacular scenery to crazy single track and concrete bowls, there’s something for every cyclist nearby, and don’t worry, there are plenty of places to hire bikes locally.
