Trevaunance Cove Surf Guide
Punchy, busy beachbreak nestled in the heart of the 'Badlands,' one of Cornwall's most core surf communities. In medium to large swells, this small sheltered bay delivers quality, hollow rights and shorter lefts and is one of the few spots on the coast that can handle southwesterly winds. As a result, the small line-up has become increasingly busy to the point of chaos. Don't drop in. Heavy rains bring pollution down the outdated drains from the overwhelmed village sewage infrastructure.
Local Vibe
Always super competitive. Can get feisty. Long established local crew, don't expect a warm welcome.
Crowd Factor
Very busy.
Spot Rating
Heavy and hollow, especially at low.
Shoulder Burn
Easy paddle out in rip on left by harbour wall.
Water Quality
OK - except after heavy rain when the sewage is definitely visible.
Hazards
Rips, Crowds, punchy, rocks.
Access
Pay car parks close to beach. Do not drive down the slip way... its a clutch burning reverse or a watery automotive grave...
Bottom
Sand.
Best Season
December - February.
