Crantock Beach, Nr Newquay, Cornwall

A wonderful sandy beach nestled within east and west Pentire Headlands.

It is backed by high dunes at one end and by steep cliffs at the other. There is a large expanse of mostly tide swept golden sand and the River Gannel enters the sea at the northern edge.

Crantock beach is a very popular destination for the locals, due to its remoteness and relative calm during the peak holiday season.
