WHAT WE DO
This is Newquay's first 4 day, intensive skate camp for youngsters who want to experience some of the South West's best indoor and outdoor skateparks; with a little bit of surfing thrown in for good measure.
We’re just a stones throw away from Newquay’s incredible Concrete Waves Skatepark and the legendary Fistral Beach.
Our aim is to provide an exciting, exhilarating experience that will never be forgotten!
Cornwall Skate Camp is Newquay’s newest, finest residential skate camp. We will travel across the wonderful West Country to skate some of the South West’s best skate parks. And if you fancy swapping the concrete waves for some real waves, then why not try your hand at surfing while you’re at it?

Our camp is aimed at 11- 16 year olds, but we welcome older and younger children. Parental consent is required for all under 18 year olds and your child must be confident to stay away from home for the duration.
How good do you need to be?
We welcome mixed abilities, although some skating experience is essential. Although the skate parks that we visit have provisions for beginners to advanced skaters, absolute beginners will feel out of their depth. If you have any concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
