One of Cornwall's
favourite beach resorts. A peaceful resort town amidst
unspoilt countryside. Magnificent classic sandy beaches, beach
and coastal path walks. At low tide the beaches combine allowing
miles of beach &cliff walks. Bude is well known as a surfers
destination, Crooklets beach being the main surfing beach. Surf board hire
& equipment-surf championships are often held here. On main Summerlease
beach is the huge free open air swimming pool. Great for dog owners- pets
are welcome on Summerlease & the main beaches along this stretch of
coastline (the exception being Crooklets beach). Boating hire
(rowing boats( and walks along Bude Canal (bird sanctuary Nature
Reserve, with a cafe at the end of the walk!). Bude is a town with
lots of restaurants,cafes, often described as 'the peaceful part
of Cornwall', a much quieter alternative to the much busier resort of Newquay.
