Explore Polzeath and its Surroundings
|
|
Park right on the beach (be careful of the tides), stumble out of the car - and you’re on one of Cornwall’s finest surfing beaches. Shops, ice cream parlours and cafes tumble haphazardly towards the beach.

The Seafood Restaurant
(2.6 miles)
Rick Stein’s three world famous restaurants all offer, as you would expect, fantastic seafood. If you’re feeling flush, book a table at The Seafood Restaurant, right by the harbour, or if the budget is tighter, St Petroc’s is lower key but still serves high quality food.

Daymer Bay
(1.2 miles)
A sheltered crescent of sand and a perfect spot for watching windsurfers and sailors harnessing the wind and whipping along the shore. Few facilities (loos and a small cafe) give Daymer a peaceful feel.

Port Isaac and Port Gaverne
(4.6 miles)
This walk enables you to explore two idyllic harbourside villages and the lovely wooded countryside between them. Port Isaac has classic Cornish character by the boat load - clusters of tiny whitewashed cottages, narrow twisting lanes and the lovely scent of freshly-caught fish.

Port Gaverne
(4.5 miles)
Due to its sheltered nature this narrow cove is very safe for children offering a small sandy beach with rock pools to explore at low tide. In a peaceful beach-front village around the headland of Port Isaac, the beach is overlooked by high cliffs on either side with amenities close to hand.

Port Gaverne
(4.5 miles)
This sweet harbour village is a near neighbour of the better-known Port Isaac; it has just as much classic Cornish character yet remains relatively free of crowds in the summer. At low tide a small sandy beach is revealed along with rockpools that trap countless crabs, shrimps and tiny fish, providing hours of entertainment for children. Away from the beach, the whitewashed Port Gaverne Hotel tempts visitors with local seafood cooked to perfection.

Port Isaac
(4.0 miles)
You might well recognise some of Port Isaac’s winding lanes and its harbour; the port has long been a star of both the big and small screens, most notably in ‘Doc Martin’ and ‘Saving Grace’. This is Cornwall at its most quaint with streets so steep and narrow that in many places cars simply don’t fit. For a great meal of fresh fish landed at Port Isaac’s harbour, the Edge Restaurant is a brilliant choice and somehow those panoramic views out to sea from the tables add to the flavour.
