If you are planning to have a picnic and stay outdoors, watch out and beware of insects that could harm you. Apply Insect repellents. In this manner, insect bites can be minimised and you are assured that you won’t get bitten and itching whilst enjoying the summer heat.

Another one is being attacked by heat stress or heat stroke. This is very dangerous for everybody is prone to it. you can be safe by preventing it to happen. You can do this simply by hydrating and taking frequent breaks from your outdoor activities. You should also watch out for symptoms like thirst, cramps, fatigue, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, headaches and fever. And also don’t stay long inside enclosed areas.

Summer also means sunbathing! But don’t you don’t want to be burned and suffer the itch and torment caused by sunburn. So before you flaunt those sexy bodies, make sure you apply ample amount of sunblock to keep your skin healthy and beautiful.

If you would like one of Newquay's quieter beaches away from the crowds even at high season Whipsiderry Beach is a beautiful stretch of golden sands and rugged cliffs located on the North coast of Cornwall. It is hidden away down 136 steps in the cliff or at low tide accessible from Porth beach or Watergate Bay. This can make for a very romantic walk starting at either Porth or Watergate Bay and strolling the length of the 3 stunning beaches.

Going to the beach with all your family can make for a fun day out but not cost the earth like some attractions when there are alot of you. All you need is a beach ball, swimming costume and some pre-packed lunch for a cosy family picnic and games on the beach! You need to be aware that there is no lifeguard service on Whipsiderry and unless it is low tide the only way out is up the 136 steps so you may want to pack light!

To get to Whipsiderry Beach you want to go to the outskirts of Newquay past Porth beach. Once your on the Watergate Road (B3276) that takes you from Newquay to Padstow you will find the beach on the left just after Porth and at the top of the hill. Unfortunately Whipsiderry doesn't have a car park but spaces along the main road can be used.

Close by and under 2 miles from the centre of Newquay Whipsiderry Hotel can offer peaceful accommodation where you will be surrounded by rolling cliffs, blue seas and enjoy breathtaking views of some of the most spectacular scenery Cornwall has to offer. The hotel has been run by the same family for 37 years so you can expect a very warm welcome and comfortable stay here.

With two guest lounges, a patio, swimming pool, american pool room and plenty more you wont want for anything! For tariff information and bookings go to http://www.whipsiderry.co.uk/
