Description

Pourville - France Pourville is a beach break featuring both right and left waves, with a sandy bottom interspersed with rocks. The spot is accessible with instant access (less than 5 minutes walk) from a large pay-to-use car park located along the D75. It works best at low and mid tide, particularly during falling tide conditions, with optimal swell coming from the west and southwest. Known for its boulder and sand beach setup, Pourville offers several peaks, especially to the west of the rivermouth, catering to various surfing preferences. The water can be turbid due to nearby limestone cliffs, adding a unique character to the surf. While the righthand slab is often favored by bodyboarders, surfers can find enjoyable rides on days with a big, glassy swell and good offshore winds. Be mindful of potential dangers such as rips, undertow, and localism, especially on weekends when the crowd increases.
