Across the river Adour from La Barre is the left hand wave of Boucau that breaks off the jetty.
Works in all swells and better in lower tides. Can be sheltered from winds from the south.
Pollution can be a problem especially after heavy rain when the river washes out.
The break is right just north of the l'Adour river at the south end of Tarnos beach.
Stay in Biarritz or Cabreton.
Parking is available right next to the break and is free.
Plenty of surf schools in Biarritz (and all up the coast for that matter)
