Bedruthan Steps

One of the more dramatic beaches in Cornwall, Bedruthan Steps gets its name from the huge slate outcrops scattered along the beach. Legend has it that the outcrops were used as stepping stepping stones by the giant 'Bedruthan' who used them to cross the bay between Park Head and Berryl's Point in the south. Situated between Padstow and Newquay, Bedruthan Steps beach is backed up by towering cliffs and the beach itself stretches for over a mile at low tide with plenty of caves and crevices to be explored.

 Spectacular views of the coast are on offer by walking the cliff top coastal path.
