Sauvaterre has several different breaks with waves breaking on the sand and sand covered reefs. Works in smaller swells but gets good in a large north westerly swell.
This is a popular stretch of coast and it gets busy when the swell is there although if you are prepared to have a bit of a walk you can usually find a spot with minimal crowds.
Car is the best way.
Access to the beach is through the pine forest that runs along the coast here. Find a spot to park and walk through to the beach.
