About the spot

Port de l’Estey lies on Lake Cazaux-Sanguinet and is used by a local kite operator. The fresh-water setting has no ocean swell and can suit controlled freeriding or foil sessions. The actual beach launch is small, however.

Stones near the entry and clearance from the harbour require reliable upwind control. A school may use other supervised launch methods; that does not make the beach start beginner friendly. Confirm wind, riding area and current restrictions locally. Neighbouring shore sections are not automatically authorised for kiting.
