Lusty Glaze
A small, privately managed bay surrounded by high cliffs, reached by 133 steps, with a beach restaurant and an outdoor adventure centre.
Lusty Glaze lies east of Newquay. It is a small bay managed privately but open to the public, surrounded by sea cliffs nearly 30 metres high, with sea caves in the rock face. At high tide the bay is almost completely submerged.
From the clifftop, 133 steps lead down to the beach, where you'll find a beach restaurant, a surf school and an outdoor adventure centre offering activities such as abseiling, cliff zip-lining and coasteering. On summer evenings there are occasional beach concerts and weddings. Entry to the beach is free, but beach activities cost extra.
