About This Spot
Landrézac is a small coastal beach break located on the Atlantic coast of Brittany, France, facing southwest toward open ocean. The spot features a long sandy beach with adjacent residential development and pastoral farmland. Water conditions are typically choppy with modest wave heights averaging 0.78m, indicating either shallow waters or limited wind fetch. Wind reliability is quite low at 23.5%, making consistent sessions unpredictable. The spot suits beginners due to small wave heights and sandy bottom, though limited space between the beach and residential area restricts maneuverability. Best conditions occur with northwest winds (315°) providing side-shore conditions parallel to the coast. Average temperatures of 13.3°C require appropriate wetsuit protection. The low average wind speed of 9.7 knots suggests this location may be sheltered from Atlantic swells or positioned in a wind shadow. Kiters should be aware of shallow areas near shore and occasional rocky hazards. This is primarily a fair-weather destination suited to progression or light-wind practice rather than challenging sessions.
