Overview

La Torche is one of the most famous wave and kitesurf spots in Brittany (Finistère), located on a peninsula near Plomeur. The point creates world-class surf conditions and is equally celebrated for kitesurf and windsurf.

The spot works best with South to South-South-East winds, which blow onshore on the north face of the point. The beach faces multiple directions, offering options depending on wind angle. A legendary spot on the Breton Atlantic coast with consistent swell and strong winds.
