I am makin a pilgramige to Amsterdam and I am left with a extra day on my eruail pass and am thinkin of of headin to western france for a day of surf if possible. My questions are... Is there any where to rent a board and suite? and what break should I head to? thanks for any help!

Hi
Here is a website descriping the coastline

The big places as I see it is Soorts Hosegor, Lacanou Ocean. Better look at a wavechart first. This time a year you can have long spells of nothing.

Just type in "France" into the forum search box over there ------>

You will find HunDReds of topics on the coastine.

Short answer to your Q's - Yes and bay of Biscay

yes best place to head is down to the south west between bordeaux and biarritz. excellent waves on one long stretch of beach so should be able to avoid the crowds. board hire in every beach town. you should be able to get away without a suit at this time of year if you go that far down. if you cant get that far down theres waves on the coastlines of the departments of gironde, charantes and vendee. im have a feeling they dont pick up as much swell though.

Landes is where its at.

Thanks guys, I am in Paris ATM but leavin tomorrow with 3 days left in Bretagne, looks like there is one hell of a summer swell comin in this next week. Hopefuly I can get out there. I would of tried to search more on my own but french keyboards are pretty gnarly lol Thanks again guys!
