Car Park opposite the beach off the Coast Road. Walk across. Bus stop also by the beach.

At Low tide it is only worth going in if it's a ultra low tide like 0.1m if you catch it on a really low tide with an off shore it gets hollow and bowls perfectly.AT High tide a 6.5m+ the beach realy starts to work as two wedges are produced from either side of the beach, it gets far heavier than Tolcarne at High tide and is generally not as good a wedge but every now and again you can catch that one wave that for Sponging at least excells anything in the Newquay Area.

Ordinary wave becoming a slab when larger and can get hollow when overhead.

Can provide shome shelter from storms.

Beware Rocks in the water at the South End between Towan Beach and Great Western centrered around the island (the house on the island). Otherwise to the North it's a sand bottom all the way to the beach.

Southerly end near Towan can close out.

Three main spots: Little Fistral (near Pentire Head); often crowded, doesn't work at high tides: North Fistral; probably one of the best beach breaks in the UK (on it's day), and South Fistral; some shelter from SWly winds, with some nice lefts off the rocks at most tides. Little / North Fistral usually fairly busy, but South not too bad. Very occaisional reports of hassling etc at Little / North, but generally 'competitive' atmosphere without being aggressive!
