Here Is Newquay
Surf's up, 30s style in the heart of the Cornish Riviera
Overview
Everybody’s going surfing in the heart of the Cornish Riviera. This 1930s promotional short may have been made before the town crowned itself Britain’s surf capital but that doesn’t stop these holidaymakers hitting the waves. It’s silent, so feel free to add your own Cornish Beach Boys mash-up soundtrack.
