Lusty Glaze is a beach in Newquay, Cornwall.
Lusty Glaze is privately owned although it has full public access. An outdoor activity company runs a range of beach based activities. The cove is naturally sheltered by high cliffs. Lusty Glaze is a Cornish tourist attraction with 133 steps from the cliff top to the beach below.
The current owners, Jeremy and Tracey Griffiths, purchased the site in 1999. The Adventure Centre combines extreme activities, both on land and in water.
There are lots of schools who go there and there is Lusty Glaze Surf Life saving there.
It was the southern terminus of the abortive St Columb Canal, parts of which were built in the 1770s, and although the southern section was probably never used, the remains of the inclined plane that connected the beach to the canal on the cliff top 100ft above are still clearly visible.
