About Les Rosaires
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces NE (24°), so it takes swell from the NE. The wind blows offshore from the SW (204°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 2–10 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 4.3 km out (1 in 435). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would spill softly. The sea is about 9°C in March, its coldest month (4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves), and 19°C in August, its warmest (2 mm shorty). The town to stay in is Plérin, 3.4 km away (about 10 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 1 wind sports spot.
Water about 14°C: 4/3 wetsuit and boots. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
