About This Spot
Eole Club Berck is a beach break located on the northern French coast facing northwest toward the English Channel. The spot sits on a relatively shallow beach with visible infrastructure and residential development immediately inland. The beach extends along a gently sloping sandy shore with areas of exposed rock and man-made structures. Wind conditions are modest with average winds around 9.7 knots and relatively low reliability (26.2%), requiring patience for sessions. Wave heights average under 1 meter, creating choppy rather than organized swell conditions. Side-shore winds from the northeast (045°) or southwest (225°) provide the safest launching and riding conditions. The spot suits intermediate riders comfortable with flat-water conditions and moderate chop. Key considerations include shallow water requiring careful launch/landing, crowded beach areas during summer months, tidal influences affecting water depth, and the need to avoid pier structures and residential areas. Water temperature averages 12.1°C, requiring thermal protection.
