Horse riding is also available from stables next to the boating lake. Town'sZoo is also situated within the gardens area as is Waterworld - more than just a swimming baths - both of which provide hours of pleasure.

If you like walking, then the coastal path offers some excellent views with breathtaking expanses of beaches and cliffs. The walk in particular from townto Watergate Bay is stunning. Walk along the Gannel Estuary from Trenance to Crantock for a level easy walk.

Gardeners and lovers of plant life are not forgotten either. Newquayboasts eleven gardens open to the public on a regular basis, with others opening at certain times of the year (brochure available at the guest house). Probably the most famous, as a result of its wide television coverage, is "The Lost Gardens of Heligan" described by their brochure as "asleep for more than seventy years".


In 2001, the mind blowing Eden Project opens to the public. This will offer year round exotic plants, rain forests and plants from around the world. One of the large greenhouses ("biomes") is large enough to accommodate the Tower of London and there will be eight biomes. The project is well on its way to completion and to whet your appetite a viewing area complete with plans and models is being opened to the public in May 2000.
