Croyde Travel Guide

 johngayton Says:  Even on a grey Monday with threatening rain showers this is still a popular summer beach for families and surfers alike (well, I know the surfers aren't going to worry about a bit of rain).Croyde is a totally uncommercialised beach with immaculate clean, fine, golden sand.... 

 johngayton Says:  I haven't been to this but it certainly looks like a bit of fun!On Sunday evenings during the peak summer months the local village hall plays host to the Deckchair Cinema. The films usually have a surfing theme and are screened in front of a deckchair auditorium - with the... 

 sunshinejo Says:  I've given surfing a try a couple of times in the past, and had neither had much success at it or enjoyed it much. So, needless to say, I was a bit dubious my friends told me they'd signed me up for a lesson during our trip to Croyde. However, once I was in the water, I had...
