  • Fistral Beach is in Fistral Bay (Cornish: Porth an Vystel, meaning cove of the foul water) on the north coast of Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is situated half-a-mile west of Newquay at grid reference SW 797 620. Fistral Bay is bounded by two promontories, Towan Head to the north and (not to be confused with Pentire Head) to the south. The straight sandy beach faces west-northwest onto the Atlantic and is approximately 750 metres (2,460 ft) long. It is backed by steep sand dunes and is overlooked by the Headland Hotel. The name "Fistral" is recorded as Fistal in 1813, coming from the Cornish bystel meaning "foul water, bile or gall" (compare Welsh bustl) probably in reference to the waves making it an unsuitable landing site.

  • Fistral Beach (in cornico: Porth an Vystel, che significa baia delle acque sporche) è una località sulla costa settentrionale della Cornovaglia, Inghilterra, Regno Unito. Si trova a mezzo miglio a ovest di Newquay alla griglia di riferimento SW 797 620. Fistral Bay è delimitata da due promontori, Towan Head a nord e (da non confondere con Pentire Head) a sud. La spiaggia di sabbia dritta si affaccia a ovest-nordovest sull'Atlantico ed è lunga circa 750 metri (2.460 piedi). È sostenuta da ripide dune di sabbia ed è sovrastata dall'Headland Hotel. Il nome "Fistral" è registrato come Fistal nel 1813, proveniente dal cornico bystel che significa acqua sporca probabilmente in riferimento alle onde che lo rendevano un luogo di approdo inadatto.
