- Almanarre
At Mistral-Rush-Hour this place can get
very crowdy. Fortunately there are plenty parking-places at the
spot. In winter the strong northern winds change this spot into a
speedstrip.
- Le Passe Pieds
This is the best Mistral-spot. The
waves here break 300 meters from the shore on an old Roman path that
lies 1,5 meters below the water surface. This creates some nice
waves. Starting is a bit difficult because the shore is very steep,
but the good thing about this spot is that it never gets too busy on
the water.
- La Madrague
Here it can be very busy on the water,
because there are many campings nearby. Still you have more room
than in Almanarre. The Mistral is very constant here, but the waves
are a bit small. The locals prefer this spot during the winter. Then
you've got perfect side-shore conditions here, with the wind coming
from the North and the waves from the West. There's enough
parking-space (not accessible with campers, etc.).
- Spot Secret
Who wants to surf has to pay! 10
Guilders for parking your car. Therefor you can also use the showers
and toilets that are located here. The shore is kind of rocky. With
Mistral wind from the North a nice swell appears which can get 3
meters high. Don't go out on the water on your own. When your
equipment breaks down you can drift out on the Mediteranean!
- La Bergerie
A famous and also crowdy spot best
visited when the wind's from the East. With onshore winds surfing
gets very difficult here. 200 meters out of the coast the waves
break very short and steep. Sandbeach without rocks and stones.
- La Badine
Here you have the best waves with wind
from the East. This is a good alternative for busy La Bergerie.
- Aygade
With Eastwind windsurfing here is good, with
Westwind windsurfing here can be dangerous. The waves are small and
harmless. To get here you must turn right after the village Ayguade.
