Trevone is a tucked-away surf spot located on a rugged part of the coast. This narrow bay really comes alive when there's a big swell, making it a place worth checking during those times. It’s best to visit at lower tides when you might find some fun lefts breaking off the rocks. The beach is surrounded by the village, providing decent parking and facilities nearby.
The surf at Trevone can be pretty average, but it still has its moments. The spot works best with swells coming from the west, but it can also handle swells coming from the southwest and northwest. You can expect wave sizes from about 1 meter (waist high) up to 2.1 meters (overhead). The bottom is a mix of sand and rock, so be mindful of the rocky areas. The waves break both left and right, making it suitable for various types of surfers, including those on shortboards, funboards, longboards, and even bodyboards. Paddling out is easy, but during busy times, it can feel crowded as locals tend to dominate when conditions are right. Ideal wind for this spot comes from the southeast, and it usually works best during the autumn and winter months.
Crowds can fill up quickly, especially when waves are firing, so be prepared for some company in the water. The vibe is usually chilled, but it helps to respect the locals and share the waves. Whether you’re an intermediate surfer or just looking to bodysurf, Trevone can offer a decent session if the conditions align.
