Gerze surf guide

Gerze is a surf spot located along a pebble beach that features a headland suitable for short right-hand waves. It's a less-known location, so it attracts fewer surfers compared to more popular spots. The intensity of the surf can vary, and it often depends on specific conditions, particularly the swell direction and size.

The best time to catch some surf at Gerze is when there's a rare northeast swell, which is necessary to make the waves break properly. The spot handles swell sizes starting from about 2 feet (0.6 meters) and can reach up to decent heights depending on the swell. Waves tend to break over boulders, and the right-hand point breaks can provide some fun rides. For those looking to surf here, the ideal wind direction is southwest, and it works well during low, mid, and high tide, making it quite flexible for different surfing sessions. This spot is suitable for beginners, so it's a great place to practice without too much crowd pressure.

Visibility of the spot is easy from the main road about 2 kilometers west of Gerze, making it accessible for surfers looking for a laid-back day on the water. While it may not be the most impressive surf destination, it's worth checking out if you find yourself in the area and are looking for a less challenging spot to ride some waves.
