Hossegor south beach

Located in the northern port of Capbreton, it is made of a large sand bank that depending on the season offers smaller and easier waves (less peak) than most of the other spots. This is an easy and accessible wave with rights and lefts breakings. Beware of side streams which then go to sea when the swell is strong in the North which rarely happens in the summer.
Works mid tide / low tide.
Depending on the conditions: all levels.

Hossegor La nord

The North spot starts 150m away from the Central beach of Hossegor and extends to the north. This is a big surf spot that rarely works below 2m and is at its best from 3m. It is relatively easy to access through a channel located in front of the Central beach and keep us from crossing a solid bar. Warning: the wave is distant and often looks smaller than it is in reality. The crowd in the water is another factor that shows you teh difficulty of the post, but don't make any mistake, the North is a powerful wave and moving a lot of water : you must have a great board, be in shape, and a very good level to go there.
Amazing show when it's big!
Works mid tide / low tide.
Expert level!

Hossegor central beach

Spot close to the beach, rather shorebreak and random hollow becomes interesting when there is enough swell. The waves break or are amortized (braked) by the northern sand bank and then re-form closer to the beach in short and quick section. Not a lot of water, so be careful landing on sand.
Works mid- tide, high tide times .
Level : Good to Expert.

Hossegor la gravière

Kolohe Andino, Quik Pro France 2012.

The surfing beach of the Quiksilver Pro France. Ultra powerful wave that breaks a few meters from the sand. This is the reform of the North just 200m north of the Central beach. Tubes and spectacular shows guaranteed. No much deep water, so it is dangerous! Can work all tides depending on the size of the swell.
Only for experts and pros !

Hossegor the Culs Nuls

Last beach of Hossegor before the town of Seignosse if you go further up to the north. The beach of the Culs Nuls is a surf spot available for many levels, which captures well the swell, so interesting when the waves are less than 2m. It provides many peaks moving with the seasons and tides. It is ideal for intermediates at 1m with often spaced peaks and relatively easy access for paddling. It is another atmosphere when the swell increases but it holds better when it's big than the spots of Seignosse.
Can work with any tides depending on the size of the swell.
Depending on condistions: all levels.

Seignosse les Bourdaines

Always a good spot on the side of Les Bourdaines, with the south option which gives at least one or two peaks, and the optional center up to the foundations of the old wharf (300m north) which also offers good plates.

Seignosse le Penon and l'Agréou

Huge beach that paradoxically offers less good spots in recent years. Always keep and eye on it because when it's good, it's really good! The spots receive the same wave conditions that Estagnots and saturate beyond 2m. Ideal during the summer for small and medium conditions. Can operate at all tides depending on the size of the swell
