trop naze! - vague pourrie, plus de cent surfeurs sur le spot avec en plus des abrutis de windsurfeur qui viennent tirer des bords entre les têtes. Sont trop nazes ces windsurfeur, ils ont toute la mer mais non...faut qu'ils aillent au bord, et en plus ils t'engueulent ces demeurés!

hehe - I was there about 2 weeks in agust and it was surfable 2 days. On those days it was such a heavy onshore wind that the place was crowded with windsurfers who flew dangerously close to your board. Only saw one accident tho.
Well what can u say about the wawes.. it was the choppiest thing I ever surfed but when the wind dropped u could get som o.k waves before it went flat again.
No trouble with the crowd or locals..

Nice - I was in France in the beginning of julyl, and rented a surfboard there. (You can rent a surfboard in two shops, one near the brutal beach, and one ca. one km away, called Ahola.) This was my first time surfing, and I found the waves very nice (as Borat would say). They were a bit hard to come over to reach the surfbreak, but it was "easy" to catch. It was plenty of people in the water, and windsurfers all over the place, but they aint in your way. Just go a bit in the middle of the bay, and no other surfer will be there, they are holding themselves to the left side of the bay if you are faced against the sea. I recomend this place if you aint that pro
