If you plan to visit Cornwall, England, then you must keep a day to explore the coastal city of Gwithian. It is a 3-mile (4.8 kilometers) long beach, starting from Hayle River extending to Red River at Godrevy. Here you can surf, windsurf, kitesurf or try other watersports activities. The beach is also well-monitored by lifeguards so if you are not confident with your skills yet, though caution is advised, they will keep an eye on you. You can easily rent gears from shops by the beach. Aside from the beach, this city also has some quality pubs that serve drinks for when you’re done spending time on the beach. Luckily, there are accommodations here that are close to both the beach and the pubs. Find out the top Airbnb vacation rentals in Gwithian, United Kingdom.

Sway to the sound of the waves
Staying in Gwithian can be therapeutic if you like being out in the sun while taking in the breeze from the sea. Aside from that, the pub culture is big even near the coast, so feel free to get some drinks after sundown. Soak yourself in saltwater during the day and have fun at night while chatting up with locals and travelers.
