About Saint Pierre Quiberon - Port Blanc
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces W (254°), so it takes swell from the W. The wind blows offshore from the E (74°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 2–9 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 250 m out (1 in 27). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would crumble. The sea is about 10°C in February, 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 Saint-Pierre-Quiberon, 1.8 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 2 surf spots and 1 wind sports spot.
Water about 15°C: 4/3 wetsuit and boots. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
