Best on west-southwest swell with northwest wind.

It is a small, low-key Vendée point break with a local Plage de la Mine alias.

🏄

Watch the bank shape and the rockier sections on the cliff line above Jard-sur-Mer, because summer flattening means the setup matters more than the tide.

Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
