Description

Wissant - France Wissant features a beach break with both right and left waves, characterized by a sandy bottom and generally powerless conditions. The spot is easily accessible, located between Boulogne and Calais, with instant access within 5 minutes of parking. Situated about 20 km from Calais, Wissant offers a laid-back atmosphere ideal for surfers of all levels. While it is primarily known for windsurfing, it can provide decent waves under the right conditions, particularly with a northwest swell and south to southeast winds. The beach tends to be empty during the week and sees only a few surfers on weekends, making it a tranquil choice. For real-time conditions, checking the local windsurfer webcam is recommended. Nearby spots like Tardinghen can also be explored for varied surf experiences.
