Spot de Urville-Nacqueville

Urville-Nacqueville

Urville-Nacqueville

Overview

Large sandy beach.

When the wind blows from the west, it's preferable that it shifts toward the northwest to avoid gusts. Under these conditions, the wind is more stable and can become very powerful. The waves, generally small, are perfect for beginners. However, with strong wind, they can reach up to 1.5 m, offering an exciting playground.

With a northeast wind, the swell can intensify with the wind, sometimes reaching 3 meters offshore. Although the spot may seem chaotic, it offers nice sections near the shore for surfing and large waves offshore for jumps. Generally, sessions are very satisfying. However, be vigilant during tides with coefficients above 90: at low tide, rocks can emerge, presenting a risk for your fins.
