Tregardock beach
Edit SpotAbout
It has no parking what-so-ever so any more than 5 cars and the farm access roads starts getting bloked. This is a delicate and sensitive area and can not cope with crowds, by that I mean the access route not the beach so much. This is a farm road used by people who have to live and work there and it's gonna really affect their lives (and maybe livelyhood) to have too many people turn up. You couldn't fit a mini-bus down that road for crying out load and there's NO turning area except the farm entrance.
Additional Info:
Dodgy right point, beachbreak fast and powerful difficult access, Need low tide, Spectacular scenery good wave picks up a lot of swell like constantine and spekes. Pretty scary at high tide when you really should NOT be in the water. Epic break on its day. Check the beach out at LOW TIDE ONLY. There will be a fast scary looking righthand reef, on the right, wedgy peaks in the middle of the beach and a righthand point/sandbar to the left. His picks up a lot of swell and the wave is really powerful. To the south there are a few more isolated peaks which are mediocre but T’dock is truly a gem.
