Postby camaro » Tue Jul 12, 2005 9:55 pm

hey everyone,

next month i'll be going to france in the medoc region and i am wondering what the best place it to surf in that region. Is there anybody who has experience in this place that can tell me the shoulds and should nots from the south of france?
Thanx.

go a bit further south then the medoc. regions like landes or the basque coast. the further you go the more consistent the waves will be. my personal favorite is a place called hossegor. hossegor is always a bit bigger than surrounding spots. but it is summer when you get there so you might suffer from the flat spell. la canau is probably your best bet round the bordeaux area
