🔥 Top 10 Ideas in Newquay for 2025
1
Coasteering
Take on the coastline as you tackle a range of stag-sized challenges, including cliff jumping, cave exploration, rock climbing and more. Do you have what it takes to conquer the cliffs? This one will certainly cure any lingering hangovers, fellas!
2
Cornish Challenge
Battle it out across a range of beach games to find the true Cornish Stag Champions. From ultimate frisbee to beach volleyball, aqua targets to relay races, there's plenty for you to sink your stag-sized teeth into.
3
Surfing
Surfs up, dude! You can't go to Newquay and not go surfing (OK, you can, but you shouldn't!). We've got a surfing expert on hand to give pointers to anyone who's never caught a wave before, so come and see if you can carve up the coastline!
4
Castaway Survivors
A cracking full-day experience where you'll end up 'shipwrecked' on an island and forced to learn how to survive. As well as wild swimming, rock scrambling and cliff jumping, you'll learn survival skills like fire building and how to identify and forage for food.
5
Giant SUP
This is stand-up paddleboarding taken to whole new levels of chaos. Yes, think paddleboarding, but we've supersized it. You and the boys will split into teams and compete in a range of races and challenges.
6
Paintballing
From capture the flag to murder ball, you guys will go gun-to-gun in various games as you paint the groom seven shades of stag. You'll be armed with semi-automatic guns as well as 100 paintballs to get you started.
7
Bubble Football
Bubble Football was made for stag weekends. Yep, people took one look at 5-a-side and said, "People aren't getting bounced into next week!". So someone took matters into their own hands and decided to put the players into massive bubble suits. Game on!
8
Quad Biking
Our Newquay quad bike track is one of the best circuits in the country. This mile-long course is there to be chewed up and spat out, and we've got just the vehicles for you to do that: some epic, high-powered quad bikes.
9
Goggle Football
If you think Bubble Football sounds chaotic, wait until you hear about Goggle Football. This is your classic 5-a-side, but each player gets a pair of goggles that makes things seem either 10 times closer or 10 times further away.
10
Bodyboarding
If you and the boys have never surfed before, bodyboarding is an easier way to take to the waves. You'll have an experienced instructor on hand to coach you through it as you sink or swim... quite literally.

The Best Time to Go
Our stats at StagWeb tell us that 55% of stags went to Newquay between May and July in 2023.
This is ideal for 3 reasons:
- You miss the price increase in the summer holidays
- You have a buffer before wedding season kicks off
- You'll start to get some great weather
By all means, go to Newquay whenever works for you, but these months are the peak stag and hen months for sure.
How Long Do People Go For?
63% of stags stayed in Newquay for 3 days and 2 nights.
Whilst this is probably enough for most groups, we'd always recommend staying longer if you can.
For most of the UK, it's quite a drive away, so you're going to want to make the most of it.
Equally, who wouldn't want an extra day or two to lounge around on the beach and enjoy the sun?!
How Soon Do People Book?
According to our end-of-year stats, most of the guys booking for Newquay in 2023 booked 4 months before they were due to go, which is the average for stags.
Four months does give you enough time to get things organised, but we'd still recommend booking earlier if you can.
Newquay is quite a popular destination amongst stag and hens, and it's quite small which means availability is limited.
The early bird catches the worm and the early stag books the best weekend!
Where to Stay in Newquay
From hotels and hostels to cracking stag houses, we've got an awesome range of Newquay stag accommodation right by the town centre.
As these places are in the thick of it, the availability can sometimes be thin, so if you're thinking of booking a stag house, then we suggest you book and pay the deposit early to secure your place.
What to Do in Newquay
With the beach, the nightlife, and over 40 different Newquay stag do ideas for you to choose from, you won't be short of things to do here.
Newquay is all about getting out in that fresh open air (well, when you're not enjoying all the pubs and bars it has to offer), so make sure you've got a packed-out itinerary in the day to keep any boredom at bay.
