Today has been windy all day; fortunately Lusty Glaze is somewhat sheltered from the southwesterlies, being one of the newquay beaches on the south coast. it sits in a small cove, surrounded by steep cliffs and reached by a long flight of steps. You can see Newquay's headland there in the distance, with its imposing Hotel on the skyline. Once you get to the bottom of the steps and past the wooden cafe, it feels like a nice beach, with even a neat row of beach huts at the back. When the tide is right out the beach opens up on the left past the edge of the cliffs, but this late afternoon the waves stop you short of the cliff line... the setting sun dodges in and out of the clouds, creating an endlessly changing series of beautiful and dramatic seascapes that you really just have to be there for.
