| Newquay home to some of Britain's cleanest beaches |
Monday 28 May 2007 |
A group of beaches in Newquay is among one of the best in the country, according to a new report.
The Marine Conservation Society (MCS) has declared that the five of the Cornish town's beaches are some of the best seaside spots in Britain, thanks to their clean water. It is among 494 beaches recommended by the MCS' Good Beach Guide 2007 for its top-quality bathing water.
Thomas Bell, MCS' coastal pollution officer, said: "MCS is delighted to recommend over 60 per cent of UK beaches this year on the basis of excellent water quality. This is great news for the thousands of holidaymakers heading to the British coast this summer.
"We're also delighted to report that the number of beaches achieving our tough water quality standard is four times higher than ten years ago.
"Britain's beaches used to be awash with sewage, and the Good Beach Guide drew a line in the sand twenty years ago for what was acceptable. Today we're enjoying the benefits of that campaign."
Newquay is considered one of the top coastal destinations in the country, and is often regarded as the surf capital of the UK.
