A large whale has been found dead on a beach in Cornwall.

Surfers from the Newquay Activity Centre made the discovery at Fistral beach at dawn.

Rob Barber, from the centre, said the whale had been seen swimming in an "uncomfortable state" off Towan Head on Wednesday.

He said authorities had been informed and a cordon was being set up.

"We just came across a whale at first light," he said.

"It looks to be 16 metres, a very slender creature... huge when you get up close to it."

The BBC has contacted Cornwall Council and Devon and Cornwall Police for comment.
