Surf: The left breaking along the concrete jetty can be one of the finest waves around. Unfortunately it’s super fickle and needs a big SW-NW swell and SW winds. Directions: Rte Portuaire N132 Environment: A few people are a crowd, who always appear on the big days, so don’t count on smiles in the line-up. There’s another peak down the beach. Pollution from Cherbourg’s massive harbour.
