Surf: During strong SW wind and swell combos, a 12km drive east from Cherbourg will be rewarded. Peak in the middle of the bay can wall up nicely. Directions: 12km (7mi) drive from Cherbourg near Fermanville Environment: Surfers flock to this nice little bay when it’s big, so expect competition at the narrow take-off zone.
