Boutrouilles, often referred to as Kerlouan, is a surf spot located in a scenic area with a friendly vibe. It can get pretty crowded during the high summer months, but most of the time, the spot offers a laid-back atmosphere for surfers looking to catch some waves. While you may find the crowds in peak season, remember that the wave quality tends to drop around that time.
The surf here is primarily a beach break, which benefits from patches of uneven reef that help hold the sand in place. It's best for intermediate surfers, with optimal swell direction coming from the Northwest. You'll find that it handles swell sizes starting from about 0.3 meters (1 ft) and can produce waves that break left and right. The beach is especially good at mid to high tide, and when the wind blows from the Southeast, that’s when the conditions really start to shine. Just keep in mind that the best surf may not always happen during the summer season.
Boutrouilles is also popular with bodyboarders, who enjoy the good wedges that form among the granite rocks. So whether you're planning to surf or bodyboard, this spot has something to offer for those looking to enjoy the waves.
