In my previous post I mentioned that we recently stayed in Newquay for a few days. As well as enjoying Fistral Beach we also walked in the opposite direction along the Esplanade.
It wasn't what I would call a 'proper' walk, more of an easy stroll, but it was nice to relax and enjoy the views without many other people about.
There were still a few wild flowers on the cliffs as the photos above and below show.
The walk / stroll was mostly along the cliff tops. Then came a view of Lewinnick Lodge on the Pentire Headland. This seemingly has 'boutique accommodation' along with being a restaurant and bar. It certainly has a fine position - when the weather is behaving itself.
We continued walking along the cliffs ...
… until, that is, we reached an abundance of sand at the Gannel Estuary.
If you like sand and lots of elbow room this must be paradise - but beware of the tides, this can also be a dangerous place to swim or wade.
There are also sand dunes.
As we approached the sand we noticed a fresh flower memorial had been left on the shrubbery. This must have once been someone's special place.
