Hayle sits where the Hayle Estuary meets the north coast, best known for the vast sweep of Hayle Towans and Gwithian, three miles of golden sand backed by dunes and among the largest beaches in Cornwall.

Beyond the sand, the town has a working harbour heritage from its industrial past, easy access to St Ives just along the coast, and a quieter, more local feel than some of its busier neighbours.

This page is your jump off point for everything we cover in Hayle, with detailed guides below to the best beaches, walks, places to eat and stay, and things to do in the area.
