Plage des Trois Moutons

Plage des Trois Moutons is located in a protected bay on the Brittany coast of France, with the coastline facing east toward the Atlantic. The spot features a shallow bay system with extensive sandy areas, bordered by forest on the landward side. The geography creates a semi-enclosed water body with moderate protection from ocean swells. Wind reliability is moderate at 46.5%, with average winds of 12.5 knots suitable for beginners to early intermediates. Best conditions occur with southerly winds (180°) that provide side-shore flow parallel to the beach. Water temperatures average 13°C year-round, requiring appropriate thermal protection. Wave heights are modest at 1.71m average, though water conditions appear rougher due to tidal influences in the bay entrance. The spot works well for beginners developing skills in relatively controlled conditions, though light wind days may require patience. Kiters should monitor tidal changes affecting water depth and current patterns, particularly near the bay entrance where rocky features are visible.
