Morbihan & Loire Atlantique Surfing

The centrally located Crozon Peninsula is the main surfing hub, focusing on some very consistent beachbreaks and a few pointbreaks as well. The SW tip of the départment is home to the famous spot La Torche, but consistency quickly drops as the coast swings to face south along the Morbihan and Loire Atlantique (part of the Pays de la Loire) coast. Such a contorted coastline means if there is swell, there will be waves somewhere, whatever the wind is doing, but allow plenty of time for navigating the slow roads and fast tides. Autumn to spring should be the best window of opportunity, although exposed beaches will often be good in summer with a pushing tide.
