Constantine Bay

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The place should not be confused with Constantine, Kerrier in Cornwall.

Constantine Bay is a small village with pleasant sandy beach near Padstow, Cornwall, England, UK (grid reference SW866744). It is adjacent to Boobys Bay.

The beach is very popular with surfers (and surf schools) and dogs are allowed on the beach all year round. There is lifeguard cover in the summer. Constantine Bay was a favourite holiday location of Margaret Thatcher during her premiership.[1]

There is a very small public car park with public toilets. Privately run parking facilities are also available during the summer, but other free parking is some distance from the beach, making the approach road liable to congestion.
