On Boxing Day we had an amazing family walk from Holywell Bay to Polly Joke over The Kelseys. It was a very mild day for late December and felt very warm at some points in the sunshine. The kids even had their shoes and coats off for most of the walk!
We took this route to find a seal cove near Polly Joke. We also hadn’t taken the coastal path to the right of Holywell yet, so it was a new adventure for us.

Boxing Day walk from Holywell Bay, over The Kelseys, to the seals at Polly Joke

We’ve been to Holywell several times since moving to Newquay in September and the car park is virtually empty every time, however, this day the car park was nearly full just like in the summer!


It was so warm he took his shoes and socks off and rolled up his trousers!



The Kelseys are in between Holywell and Porth Joke and the coastal path goes through them.











Beautiful photos! It looks like a wonderful place to spend a day.

It’s incredible how many there can be! We’ve seen other photos with around double what we saw. Quite amazing 🙂
