The short version, from the cited sources

Constantine Bay is a sandy Atlantic beach in the parish of St Merryn on the north coast of Cornwall, about three miles west of Padstow. It is popular with surfers and has lifeguard patrols in summer; farmers once carted its sand inland to lighten heavy soils.
