About Trevone
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces NW (329°), so it takes swell from the NW. The wind blows offshore from the SE (149°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 4–15 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 200 m out (1 in 22). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 10°C in February, its coldest month (4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves), and 17°C in July, its warmest (3/2 wetsuit). For intermediate surfers the best months are usually January, March and April, with about 1 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Trevone, 0.8 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 12 surf spots and 1 wind sports spot.
Water about 14°C: 4/3 wetsuit and boots. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
