Lovely little beach on the North coast for a ride. It’s not a huge beach but there is nearly always someone swimming in the bay. Well worth a visit

Lovely beach, shops, cafes and restaurants available. Accessible beach with a small slope. Benches to sit on if you don’t want to go on the beach. Good parking if you get there early enough.

Really nice little sandy beach with good facilities suitable for family with young children. There is also a tidal pool nearby. For those who prefer to hike, there is a path on both sides of the beach with amazing views. Look out for the Trevone Round Hole. There is a shop, cafe, bar, public toilet and two parking areas. You can pay for parking either with the ticket machine or via app.

Lovely beach for families, the little stream provides a perfect place for little ones to safely dip their toes in the water and the sand is soft and clean. The beach slopes gently so even the shallows are fairly safe. It's worth taking a walk up to Trevone Round Hole which takes about 30 minutes to go up, walk around the hole and get back to the beach. The views from the cliffs up there are stunning. The parking sign states that your ticket must be visible face up on the dash, but your timings are clocked by camera coming in and leaving so don't be tempted to over stay and go by the time you enter, not the time you get your ticket. The road down to the beach is very narrow so take it slowly as you will encounter oncoming traffic and pedestrians.

There are stunning views from the cliff tops surrounding the beautiful bay of Trevone. There is a lovely cafe close to the beach which serves delicious food and drinks which is pretty good priced. There are toilets beside the cafe which you have to pay to enter which is still cash only payment.
