Tolcarne

Tolcarne is the third and most easterly of Newquay's town beaches. Today everything is clouded over before sundown, the water level cuts off the cove from the other beaches, and the beach is desrted except for one or two surfers in the water. But walking along the water's edge in the soft dying light, the view of Newquay's headland on one side, and that of the long line of coastal cliffs on the other, are good enough reasons just to be there
