The beaches are quite sheltered by the headlands of Carnweather Point and Trevan Point, and the area has been landscaped by the National Trust but care should be taken.
Excellent cliff walks over the headlands to The Rumps or eastward to Port Quin.

  The coastal path passes through Polzeath in one direction to Rock, and in the other through New Polzeath, Pentire Point and along miles of stunning coastline. On the headland of The Rumps is the Iron-Age cliff castle. This fort with superb coastal vistas has a triple rampart and ditch system protecting the headland.

  Polzeath beach is sand/shingle and is also one of the worlds most renowned surfing destinations. On the beach you also have rock pools and a nature reserve but at high tide much of the beach disappears. The surf can cater for all standards from kids learning to experienced surfers. In the summer it can get very busy in the water. Facilities include car park, lifeguards in the summer months, pubs, cafes and restaurants.
- Greenaways Beach

  No Reviews
  Favorite
  Greenaway Beach has sand, pebbles and wonderful rock pools at low tide that provide for excellent fun with crabbing nets. Approached by steps down the cliff below Tregreen usable only at lower tides. Nearly always quiet as it is largely overlooked in favour of Daymer Bay to the south or Hayle Bay and Polzeath to the north. No facilities.
