Welcome to Breakwater Hostel

Often described as “a second home” and “the first and last traditional backpackers in Newquay”.

This long-established homely hostel offers a warm welcome to all guests – surfers, hikers, and travellers alike.

We are situated in the heart of Newquay, within easy walking distance of awesome surfing beaches including Fistral Beach, Towan Beach, Great Western Beach and Tolcarne Beach. The town centre is on our doorstep where you can find a range of cafes, restaurants, bars, clubs, surf shops, a leisure centre, a cinema, and even an aquarium.

We are a great base for many scenic walks along the coast to Holywell Bay, Porth beach, Lusty Glaze, and Watergate Bay. And even further!
Come and enjoy our many facilities, including secure surfboard storage room, wetsuit storage, warm showers, free breakfast between 8 am and 10 am. We also have a fully equipped self-service kitchen which is open from 8 am – 8 pm and we provide free tea, coffee, and milk all day.

If it’s a few relaxing days chilling on the golden beaches, learning to surf, or a fun-filled weekend you are looking for.

Always enjoy staying at Breakwater/Backpackers. Consistently good hospitality/ facilities/ atmosphere. This time no different. Relaxed check-out was a nice bonus this time

Great location next to Fistral beach and local amenities. Very loud hostel in an old building so no soundproofing, breakfast very basic, free tea and coffee throughout day, basic facilities throughout. Could do with lockers in the room and more plug sockets. Staff friendly

Nice stay. Friendly staff and cheap room. Would suggest adding some lockers that guests can use as we were just leaving our valuables in the shared dorm room relying solely on trust. Thanks for hosting.
