Lineup Insights

🌊

The Wave

Northeast to north-northeast wind keeps it clean, and west-sector Atlantic swell is the useful pulse.

Check the live tide windows in the app to time your session perfectly.

🏄

Lineup Guide

The easiest access is along the port and Grande Plage remblai, with parking along the embankment, but the waterline can shift enough at higher tide to make entry less comfortable.

Expect current on better days and some crowd pressure around the obvious access points.
