Where the River Gannel's salt marsh marks the southern boundary and Fistral Bay opens westward onto the Atlantic, Newquay occupies the north coast of Cornwall as a seaside resort and historic fishing port that has grown steadily inland since the mid-nineteenth century to reach around 24,000 residents. St Columb Minor and St Newlyn East lie further east.
A branch line to Par connects the town to the main Cornish railway, placing Truro within roughly fifty minutes by rail. Trevenson is widely regarded as one of Newquay's most school-competitive corners for families seeking primary places, with Summercourt and Treviglas carrying the same reputation among parents in the town.
