When the weather turns and the heavens open, don’t despair - there are still plenty of things to do around Cornwall come rain or shine.
When you’re enjoying the sea, what does a little drizzle matter? Head out to the coast and hit the surf where you can make the most of the great waves that come with this time of year. With surf schools available around the county it’s an activity that everyone should try.
Whether you pull your wellies and waterproofs on and head out on one of the walking trails, or get muddy on your mountain bike, Cardinham Woods is a great place to explore whatever the weather.
When the rain’s pouring down outside, why not visit the rainforest or the Mediterranean? A fantastic family day out, from discovering all that the gardens have to offer, to the many children’s activities available - you’ll find plenty to keep everyone entertained at the Eden Project.
If warmer water and indoor heating sounds more appealing than the sea then head to Water World in Newquay. The indoor pool boasts two water flumes, water canons and even an erupting volcano, ensuring there’s plenty for the kids to enjoy.
