Home > Things to do in Cornwall > Surfing in Newquay and Cornwall
Get a fabulous workout as you ride the waves of one of Europe's top surfing destinations. With a variety of reef and beach breaks scattered along both the north and south coasts, there is a wave for all weather conditions and for every level of surfer.
And as the super chic image of surfing has cajoled more and more participants into the waves, it's no longer just for super cool grommets and weathered pros - grandads, parents and annoyingly good littl'uns can be found grinning in the line-up.
