Mediterranean Sea, no tide, no current. Always a bit choppy, short waves with East wind, and shore break. Bigger waves with onshore wind, not easy. Shallow parts. Soft sandy beach, no shells, no pebbles, no rocks. Some parts wide enough to launch and land a kite. Actually this is the first beach wide enough to launch safely a kite going west from the Italian border. The beach is protected by 2 rock pier, making an artificial small bay and a protected start area in shallow water. Very good for beginners. 4 major types of winds: 1) thermal wind, called "Ponant", South 10-20 knots, sideonshore, ideal for kitesurfing. Starts at 1-2pm until the evining. 2) East wind, with swell, waves shore break, clouds and maybe rain. Can be strong 25-40 knots. Straight onshore, for experts. Start difficulty in the shore break. 3) West wind, called "Mistral", blue sky, very strong 25-45 knots. Offshore, not for this spot, better go windsurfing in Saint Raphael, 4km away. 4) No wind, in French slang "Petole". Unfortunately too frequent. Water temperatures: 23°C in summer, 20°C until October, going progressively to 16°C in December, the coldest is February with 13°C, and then going up starting to be 20°C in May. In summary shorty from May to October, long wetsuit in winter. The season is all the year, but cold in February. Water: Shallow, Chop, Smallwave. Features: Camping, Shop, Shower, Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
