Constantine Bay

OS Grid ref:- SW 8574

Attractive Constantine Bay is situated near the popular resort town of Padstow.

The bay has an excellent wide golden beach which abounds with rock pools and is backed by low sand dunes which are blanketed in marram grass. It is a highly popular location with surfers and has lifeguards in the summer months. Dogs are allowed on the beach all year.

The small adjoining village of Constantine Bay has an estimated population of around two hundred people. The village acquires its name from St. Constantine, a saint revered in Cornwall and Devon.

At one side of the bay lies the beauty spot of Trevose Head, a storm battered granite headland which offers magnificent views into Devon. Both Constantine Bay and the adjoining Booby's Bay can become very busy in the summer months.

Beyond the beach and sand dunes lies the Trevose Golf Course with footpaths leading northeast to Harlyn Bay.
