Wind Days = % of days with 12–35 knot average wind speed (ideal kiting conditions). Based on 4 years of historical weather data.
Partially sheltered coastline with moderate, varied conditions
Soubrejon is a bay-facing spot located on the Atlantic coast of France near La Rochelle, characterized by northeast-facing shoreline with distinctive eroded clay cliffs. The water body is a shallow to moderate-depth bay with mixed sand and sediment bottom. The spot benefits from Atlantic swell and moderate wind patterns typical of the French west coast, with an average wind speed of 11.3 knots and relatively low reliability at 37.1%. Northwest winds (315°) provide optimal side-shore conditions for kitesurfing. Water temperatures average 14.4°C with 1.47m average wave heights, suggesting small but consistent swell. The proximity to residential development and agricultural land indicates moderate boat traffic. The cliff formations and shallow nearshore waters require competent riders comfortable with variable conditions and limited recovery space. Best suited for intermediate kiters with experience in coastal bay conditions. Wind reliability suggests this is a seasonal spot dependent on Atlantic weather patterns.
