Les Crevettes

Les Crevettes is a sheltered beach break located on the Atlantic coast of Brittany, France, facing west toward open ocean. The spot features a long sandy beach with moderate fetch distance and relatively protected conditions. The shallow nearshore waters and low average wave height of 1.2m indicate this is primarily a light-wind, small-wave destination suitable for beginners and progression riders. Wind reliability is notably low at 27.1%, making consistent sessions unpredictable. Average wind speed of 10.2 knots provides marginal power for kitesurfing and suggests sessions will be best during stronger weather windows. The spot suits riders learning to manage light conditions and those seeking a mellow, forgiving environment. North winds (0°) provide optimal side-shore conditions parallel to the coast. Key considerations include waiting for stronger wind days to maximize session potential and monitoring water depth near the shore. The location's accessibility and beginner-friendly characteristics make it suitable for lessons and progression during favorable weather windows.
