A concentration of some of the best spots in Brittany, with some hollow and powerful waves on a 2km stretch. Port-Blanc gets shelter from a cliff, Port Marie breaks far offshore and Port-Rhu is a well-defined, localized peak, while Port-Bara is more accessible.
Handles size, when the waves and rips get punishing. Often crowded on weekends. Since 1987 a law states only French Surfing Federation members can surf here.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
