Gwithian lies across the bay from St Ives and is perfect for families and surfers alike. Get to the beach at sunrise to really see it at its best. You may even see a few surfers appearing as the sun comes up to catch a few waves before the day begins. ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6047755/39185de4-be6a-4ab8-ae23-ba74c4c5b1be.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Upton Towans Beach 11 min drive \- 2.0 miles - Hayle Towans Beach 5 min walk \- 0.3 miles - South West Coast Path Section 19 Trailhead 17 min walk \- 0.9 miles - Paradise Park and JungleBarn 5 min drive \- 1.6 miles - Porth Kidney Sands 5 min drive \- 0.5 miles ### Getting around - Hayle Station 6 min drive - Newquay (NQY-Newquay Cornwall) 50 min drive ### Restaurants - Copperhouse Inn 5 min drive - Cornubia Inn 5 min drive - McDonald's 5 min drive - Philps 19 min walk - Sands Bar 9 min drive ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Medina is walking distance to 3 miles of sandy surf beach pet-friendly? ### How much is parking at Medina is walking distance to 3 miles of sandy surf beach? ### What time is check-in at Medina is walking distance to 3 miles of sandy surf beach? ### What time is check-out at Medina is walking distance to 3 miles of sandy surf beach? ### Where is Medina is walking distance to 3 miles of sandy surf beach located? ## Have a question?
