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, leisure centre, 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 surf board storage room, wetsuit storage, warm showers, free breakfast between 8am and 10am. We also have a fully equipped self service kitchen which is open from 8am – 10pm 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… Newquay International Backpackers is the place for you.

Reception is open from 10am – 10pm all week.
