Day 6~13th September: Watergate Bay to Perranporth
Grey and overcast until the afternoon with a small shower on leaving Newquay which was ended by our putting on waterproofs. A stong headwind kept us cool. Walked through Newquay which was unrewarding after the natural beauty of the coastal path. Crossed by ferry to Crantock where the ferryman did not charge and even donated. Crossed the sand and came to Pentire Point West arriving at Holywell Bay, where we lunched under the rocks at the end of a wonderful beach. Walked around Penhale Camp before walking the three miles along the beach at Perranporth, where we met up with Jenny Doble's cousin and friend at the Watering Hole before leaving for her home. Map mileage 14 miles for the day and 75 in total - pedometer reading 99 miles. Estimated height was 1600ft over five valleys
