Sea Kayaking, Coasteering, Sailing, Windsurfing, Paddleboarding
Cornish Rock Tors
offers sea kayaking and rock climbing.
Adrenalin Quarry offers coasteering, also exhilarating zip wire rides.
There are sailing and windsurfing lessons available on Siblyback Lake.
There is also a sailing school at Rock. Paddle boarding lessons are available locally.
Body Boarding
No need for lessons – just go to Polzeath and try it. Be sure to check with the lifeguards where it is safe to do it. There are boards you can borrow
in the sheds at Higher Tregawne. Kids don't seem to need wet suits but buy them online before you come - much cheaper than hiring.
Surfing
Surf's Up Surf School in Polzeath offers a range of courses to suit everyone from beginner to advanced.
They provide everything – wet suits, boards, instruction, the lot. Newquay is also famous for its surf.
Check the surf for yourself at
Ann's Cottage Surf Cams.

A wide range of trips are on offer including wreck and reef and bottom fishing as well as mackerel trips which are fun for all the family.
