Polkerris are starting a special 10-week youth windsurfing course during NWW. Funded by a Sport Unlimited Grant from Sport England, our course will see 20 young beginners hit the water for an extremely low price of just £26 for the whole course!

Polkerris Beach combines an idyllic sandy Cornish cove with first class watersports facilities. It’s as good for a day trip as it is for a two-week holiday or intensive watersports course.

From the smallest sandcastle-building toddler to the seasoned watersport enthusiast, there is something for everyone here. Picture this – a sheltered, sandy beach in a small village, self-catering accommodation just up the lane, no through traffic, a beach shop and café, equipment rental so you don’t have to lug everything with you and personalised windsurfing and sailing tuition at our RYA Recognised Training Centre. Round that off with a beer in the Rashleigh Inn right on the beach as the sun sets and you have the makings of the perfect Cornish beach scene.

Located a couple of miles from Fowey in South East Cornwall, Polkerris is easy to get to by car. It’s also close to Par mainline station with direct and frequent train services from London.

The Polkerris Beach Company is based in a 17th century pilchard store, right on the beach with plenty of space and facilities. We welcome enquiries for special events: anything from a barbeque for a family occasion to the Fowey Lifeboat's 150th anniversary which we are proud to host on Bank Holiday Monday 25th May 2009. The business is privately owned and run by the Shillito family: we look forward to welcoming you soon!
