  • Inspired by Bob Acton's book of circular walks "Around Newquay", we decided to walk from Newquay Harbour to Porth, along the beaches at low tide. Armed with very specific instructions about timing this walk, we followed the advice but did we get through at low tide?
    We start in Newquay harbour, exploring some of its fascinating history. We find answers to questions like: how old is Newquay Harbour? Why is there a central pier that seems to go nowhere? What was that tunnel used for?
    With it being a low, spring tide, we were able to walk through the harbour entrance and join Towan Beach. After dreaming of the romantic situation of The Island House, we pick up the pace and pass Tolcarne Beach, and Lusty Glaze beach but will we be able to make it around the headland to Porth - is this the pinch point?
    NB: If you are thinking of following this route, please check your tide times and make sure it is a spring tide.
    The standard description bit…
    We are Sarah and Andrew and we film our walks around Cornwall and publish on UA-cam, usually weekly. Sometimes we stay in accommodation in Cornwall and upload our vlog. Sarah is fascinated by sea glass and likes to collect it so there may be the occasional sea glass video too. The channel is a hobby and we both have normal day jobs!
    Frequently asked questions:
    What camera do we use?
    Since December 2018 we have used: Canon Powershot G7x MkII
    How do I find the books you use?
    Most are still in print although some we pick up in charity shops and may be available on Amazon secondhand. Please refer to the video for the book titles. Every video shows the book three times. Sorry but we can’t put a link in every description.
    Best time of year to visit Cornwall?
    We love May, June for flora and fauna, July and September for spectacular scenery.
    What is your dog’s name?
    Sorry but we do not release the name of our dog, perhaps you can make up your own name for him.
