About this Spot

Trebarwith is a surf spot located in Cornwall, United Kingdom. This surf location features an a-frame wave direction with a sandy bottom, making it accessible for surfers of all levels. The waves here can reach lengths of less than 50 meters and the spot experiences regular surf conditions. The surf is best during low and medium tides, but caution is advised as the area can become challenging when the tide is high due to the presence of rocks and potential rips or undertow. At high tide, the beach diminishes, leading to crowded conditions, particularly during summer months. Surfers should be aware that the left-hand wave at the south end is popular among bodyboarders, while a right-hand reef break around the southern headland may offer good tubes but can also be quite hollow and challenging. Access to this reef break requires paddling from T-strand. Trebarwith is situated near several other surf spots, including Tregardock beach, Barras Nose, Bossiney Haven, Barrets Zawn, and Lundy Bay. It is important for surfers to assess their skill level against the difficulty of the waves before entering the water, especially in crowded conditions where surf etiquette should be respected. The surf spot is characterized by its scenic views, but it is crucial to be mindful of the local surf culture. Parking is conveniently available as surfers can drive right up to the beach. Overall, Trebarwith offers a mix of fun surfing experiences and challenges, but caution is advised due to the changing conditions and potential hazards. Respect the locals.
