With many launch areas along the river, a popular area is the lower part of the Gannel River that meanders gently from the Newquay boating lake, before opening out on to the breath-taking Crantock Beach.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #252d31;\">Whether you\u2019re looking for a gentle paddle upriver, some light-hearted group fun, or be a little more adventurous in the surf, there is something for everyone. The Creek offers plenty of shelter, look out for the resident Kingfishers and be sure to check on local conditions and tide times.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Towan Beach \u2013 Newquay<\/h3>\n<p>The pristine sand of Towan Beach is the perfect place for a spot of paddleboarding in Cornwall. Stretching from Newquay&#8217;s harbour walls, to the cliffs of Lusty Glaze Beach at low tide.\u00a0Perfect for first-timers due to its sheltered nature, but also a joy for more advanced paddle-boarders, the surrounding harbour wall and rock faces cause waves to break, providing appeal and adventure for thrill-seekers.<\/p>\n<p>A popular route from Towan beach is to paddle out to The Gazzle \u2013 a 2km stretch of Atlantic coastline, keep an eye out for an abundance of fish, crustaceans, and sea birds when you\u2019re out on your SUP. You might even be lucky enough to see some sea lions, porpoises, and dolphins.<\/p>\n<h3>Fistral Beach<\/h3>\n<p>Famously known as the home for British Surfing, Fistral Beach is an excellent space to launch your stand-up paddleboard in Cornwall.

Similar to Harlyn Bay, suitable conditions for paddleboarding at Fistral beach means little or no surf with very little wind.<\/p>\n<h3>Newquay paddleboarding lessons and hire<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fistralbeachsurfschool.co.uk\/sup-hire\/\">Fistral Beach Surf Schoo<\/a>l<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/newquaywatersportscentre.co.uk\/paddleboarding-in-newquay\/\">Newquay Water Sports Centre<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wavehunters.co.uk\/location\/\">Wavehunters &#8211; Watergate Bay<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>View our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cornishcottageholidays.co.uk\/newquay.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">properties in Newquay<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"Padstow\"><\/a><strong>Where to go paddleboarding in Padstow<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3943 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cornishcottageholidays.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/05\/Padstow-blog-image.jpg\" alt=\"paddleboarding in Cornwall, Padstow\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>The Camel Estuary, North Cornwall<\/h3>\n<p>A peaceful way to explore the beautiful Camel Estuary is to launch from the small beach at Dennis Cove, next to the Camel Estuary, just 1km from Padstow.
