Tomorrow is Good Friday and Newquay has many egg-citing events happening over the Easter weekend! Not only that have you seen the weather forecast for the weekend, bright sunshine and warm weather is on the way!
The Easter Bunny has been very busy lately and has lost some of their eggs… Can you help them find their eggs? After all Easter wouldn’t be Easter without an Easter Egg Hunt!

Newquay Lions Easter Egg Hunt
Newquay Lions are holding their annual Easter Egg Hunt on Towan Beach which takes place on 21st April 2019!

Make the Most of the Weather
With temperatures rising and the sun brightly shining, why not make the most of what outside attractions Newquay has to offer!
Choose one of Newquay’s beaches for a free day out!
If you have ever been to Newquay then you will know, we are very lucky to have miles of captivating coastlines and long stretches of sand to explore making it an ideal playground for little ones to run free.
If you fancy a picturesque walk with stunning views, then Newquay beaches and the surrounding areas will not disappoint! Follow the South west Coast Path and view the coast from up above on top of the cliffs. The South West Coast Path is great, as you can walk as far or little as you wish.
Trenance Gardens and Boating Lake
This time of year has got to be one of our favourites at Trenance Gardens and Boating Lake. With the dazzling array of colours and trees in full bloom, makes Trenance Gardens a charming place to visit. Not only do you have all the new life in the gardens, but you might be lucky enough to spot some of the VERY cute little ducklings new to the boating lake.
Unlock the secrets of Newquay's past!
Walking the Newquay Discovery Trail you will find slate discs, about a metre (1 yard) in diameter, embedded in the ground at key places of interest. Each slate circle is numbered and these link in with the map so you can read fascinating facts about your location whilst taking in some spectacular views - a great way to enjoy a tour of Newquay without a car.
There are two seperate walks, the 'Hetty’ and the 'Ada’ that make up the entire Discovery Trail. The 'Hetty', yellow on the map, takes a mostly coastal route including the beautiful Harbour, the 'House on the Island' and Fistral Beach. The 'Ada', pink on the map, takes in some of the coast but then moves inland passing through the Trenance Leisure Park, Gardens & Boating lake and near to a number of popular Newquay attractions including the Zoo, Waterworld and the Tennis centre.
