Access by forest path from the parking. The beach is wild and unorganised — self-managed spot. Northwest wind is the ideal angle. Check for rocky sections before launching. Best at mid to low tide.

Open all year round

Open year-round. Best season: May to October. Northwest wind provides the best conditions — pure Atlantic exposure. Wild beach, no services on site.

Intermediate

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.

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.
