Additional Surfing Infos
 Only a few Locals surf but don't share waves. Be friendly, speak french and buy stuff from the local 'surf-shops'
  Overview
  Atmosphere Exceptional site, big cliff above the spot, you feel out of the world
  General I was there in summer, but I was told that in winter, when the different sections connect, the waves is very very very long
It's a really good wave, with a cool take off, then become faster, and could tube in the last section

locals start to hassle in the water. they have longboards and tend to drop in all the time. they don't surf the whole wave into the bay, just the first 50m, then kick off and come racing back just to drop in again!

watch out for abandoned hooks!!!!
it's better if it gets bigger, the shortboarding locals are much cooler and share waves (because it's a massive paddle back to the point)
speak french and by stuff in the 'surf-shop' eventually it will get better...

Found it to be very much a longboard wave on small to medium swells though long enough. Town quite grotty -path to the wave doubles as a latrine. Stay at the Hotel for friendliest service.
