General
elaxed atmosphere, quite a small beach that can get crowded with tourists in summer (but where doesnt these days!) fun wave.

Beautiful - I've been barrelled and barrelled and barrelled at Trevone. The person who posted "Trevone: OVERRATTED"... Learn to paddle dude!!! The place goes off and, as has been said, is TOP class when it works. Catch it low to mid tide on the push when Harlyn's at 3 foot and clean and you'll be looking at 5 foot plus perfection!!! My favourite UK wave for all sorts of reasons. To suggest Harlyn's the better option is just daft!

im here to help you make sense my friend - someone who doesnt live there sends in a photo of somewhere they dont live.......in other words, you answered yourself in your own question. In future if you intend to post rhetorical questions then you must still use a question mark. Im not having a go, merely pointing out the uselessness of your question and the grammatical incorrectness. take care anyway, but use more thought next time. thanks
