About the spot

This Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer is in Seine-Maritime, not the namesake resort in Calvados. Falling water exposes a broad sandy area below the shingle beach. West to northwest winds support freeriding and, depending on swell, wave riding.

High tide reduces space and can drive strong shorebreak onto the shingle. Identify the kite zone, rocks and groynes before launching. A school teaches in suitable conditions; independent riders need a controlled return and awareness of the tidal current.
