When you are arrived, look at your left and about 300 metres you lormaly see the line up of Les Allassins, in front of you this is Vert Bois. By a normal day Les Allassins is always bigger than Vert Bois, that why even if people are many on the spots, there is always some good waves to take
Atmosphere
This is the place to be if you want to know something about the surf on the island. All the surfers who live here go just to know how the swell is (because if you want you don't have to park your car to see the line up....)
General
More the surf is growing more this spot become crowed. But when the swell is really coming and if you have the level no problem you are going to take goods take off.

le pays des vagues molles. - vert bois, grand village,les allassins et j'en passe ne sont que des grosses vagues molles et trés nettement en dessous de ce que m'on peut trouver quelques kilometres plus haut ou plus bas sur le restant de la côte de la charente maritime et de la vendée. Alors bon courage pour ceux qui souhaiterait se mesurer à toutes ces vagues molles alors qu'en cherchant bien de meilleures conditions pourront se présenter à vous.
