EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the picturesque Newquay Harbour, captured in this stunning print from July 1923. The image showcases the charm of a bygone era on Cornwall's northern coast, where sailing boats gracefully rest at low tide. The Great Western Railway (GWR) proudly presents this publicity view, inviting travelers to explore the idyllic seaside town. As we gaze upon the scene, our eyes are drawn beyond the protective harbour walls towards two sandy stretches: Great Western Beach and Newquay Beach. These pristine shores offer an irresistible invitation for sun-seekers and beachcombers alike. The sailboats dotting the harbor epitomize leisurely summer days spent exploring Cornwall's coastal wonders. Their billowing sails stand tall against a backdrop of clear blue skies and shimmering sea waters—a testament to both adventure and tranquility. Transport yourself to a simpler time as you imagine strolling along Newquay's charming streets or indulging in freshly caught seafood at one of its quaint harborside cafes. This snapshot encapsulates not only a moment frozen in history but also embodies the timeless allure that draws visitors to Cornwall year after year. Join us on this nostalgic journey through Newquay Harbor—where sand meets sea, boats sway with gentle tides, and memories are made amidst breathtaking natural beauty.
