Very shallow — 30-80cm, foot touch bottom everywhere. Muddy bottom — can trap fins and feet. Gusty Tramontane near edges. Small lagoon — limited space. Protected natural area — respect fauna.

Wind specificities

All wind directions work. Tramontane NW arrives attenuated (dunes protect). Marin SE/E flat and manageable. Thermal summer possible. Weaker than the open spots — good for light wind foiling.
