About Pôle Nautique de Barneville-Carteret

Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces S, so wind from the N blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

Water about 14°C: 4/3 wetsuit and boots. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing S. Wind from the S blows onshore, wind from the N blows out to sea, and wind from the W or E runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 5.3 km out (1 in 526). 1 sailing school or club and 3 boat hire places within 10 km. The sea is about 9°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 Carteret. Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
