Côte des Basques surf guide

Côte des Basques, located in Biarritz, is a well-known surf spot and a pivotal part of France's surfing history. This beach is popular among longboarders and surfers alike, especially during the summer months when the waves are more manageable. The scenic views and the laid-back vibe attract both locals and tourists, making it a lively spot, especially during peak seasons.

The surf here is suitable for beginners, as the mellow waves generally range from knee to shoulder-high. You can typically find a nice peak forming close to the headland, with another one located a bit further down the beach. The ideal swell direction is from the west, and the spot can handle swell sizes from about 1 ft (0.3 m) and up. With waves breaking over sand, you'll find both left and right rides. When the swell picks up to head high or more, it's a bit more challenging, particularly if you head towards the southern section of the beach. For the best conditions, southeast winds are preferable, and low to mid-tide will give you the best experience.

The beach gets crowded, especially with surf schools and beginners looking to catch some waves. As the tide rises, the accessible beach space can shrink significantly, which means it empties out when high tide comes in. So, it's good to check the tide schedule before you head out. Overall, Côte des Basques offers a mix of fun, beginner-friendly waves and a vibrant surf scene.
