On the water

Atlantic beach break with swell 0.3 to 1.5m in west and northwest conditions. Sandy bottom near shore. Tidal range significant — beach width varies considerably. No rip current infrastructure — assess conditions on arrival.

Spot currently open :-)

Parking

Limited parking spaces, especially in summer, but free parking!

Hazards

In summer there are some boats at anchor just in front of the beach, it's forbidden to pass between the boats, you must go around them. At low tide, there is a rocky plateau slightly to the left with the beach at your back, to be avoided, be vigilant when foiling when it's not visible and don't hesitate to ask locals for more details.

Wind specificities

West and northwest winds give full Atlantic exposure with a long oceanic fetch — clean and powerful. Northwest is the optimal angle for this beach orientation. The west Oléron coast is more exposed than the east coast and picks up swell and wind simultaneously. Summer thermal north and northwest wind gives lighter but consistent sessions.
