Salt lake. Flat to choppy water. Shoes recommended due to shells. With stronger Tramontane small, but nice wave builds up. Lots of seaweed in summer. Watch out for stones. Shoes are recommended. Sandy beach, not much space. The dominant wind is the Tramontane, no other wind has really a chance against it. It is a wind which blows from Northwest. This wind is created by an anticyclone over the south west of France and a depression over the Mediterranean. When the Tramontane blows it normally blows very strong. Statistics say that there are 300 days a year with a wind over force four. The other wind direction is the Marin which blows from SE. Nice temperatures, air and water. During winter wetsuit is needed. It is in the South of France so expect nice weather. Water: Shallow, Flat, Chop, Smallwave. Features: Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
