Padstow is a charming fishing town and harbour that is rich in history and heritage. Whilst it can get busy, it is for good reason as the picturesque town has lots to see and experience. There are many attractive beaches and coves close to Padstow, too, including Bedruthan Steps, said to be the stepping stones of an ancient giant, and Constantine Bay, one of the best surfing beaches in the area.

Hiking

Very tourist place with tlw. Excellent restaurants. A hike along the sprawling beach is definitely a highlight on a Cornwall trip. An "insider tip" is the ascent to the widely visible Stepper Point at the end of the sandy beach. The slightly boring climb is rewarded with a breathtaking view at the end.
