Seminal Brittany surfspot with ultra-consistent, walled-up peak breaking beside rocky headland. Shorter but hollower rights break into the rip known as "the elevator" which flows straight to the peak. Lefts speed down the beach but paddle back can be gruelling. Many more breaks further north along beach at Trono'n or Penhors and mellow rights at the La Torche point at the end of Audierne Bay. Ultra-crowded with all surf craft on weekends. Just next to La Torche there's an under-rated beachbreak and a righthand reef at high tide. The offshore big-wave reefs of Les Etocs can provide perfect 3-6m waves for daredevils only. Much quieter than La Torche.
