It's an unknown wave. Rarely breaks.You can paddle through the harbour or jump from the jetty. Be careful with big swell, the spot becomes dangerous (waves bigger than 2.5m): there is a rip in front oh the harbourg and it's very difficult to come back safely. There rocks all around. I have seen a guy who go directly on rocks. it was really scary. At 2m the right is wonderful !

Degemer ar vro bigouden - Not really a beach break! And you can try to go left but I don't think you will do it twice. Totally agree with the previous message.
