About
About Polzeath Beach
Polzeath, also known as Hayle Bay, has gently breaking waves that make it one of the best places in Cornwall to learn to surf. At low tide the sand stretches wide, with rock pools at either end.
From the beach, the coast path climbs to Pentire Head and the Iron Age headland of the Rumps, with spectacular views, while the sailing village of Rock is a short drive away.
