Les Dunes is a mellow beachbreak that attracts surfers looking for a laid-back vibe. Located in a spot that usually gets some consistent waves, it’s a great place for those who enjoy a beach setup. The area features easy parking and a large campsite across the road, making it convenient for surfers looking to stay a while.
This surf spot works best when the swell comes from the West, with good conditions seen with southwest and northwest swells. It can handle swell sizes starting from about 1ft (0.3 meters), and you can expect both left and right waves. While the best time to catch waves is during low to mid tide, keep in mind that it can tend to close out when the waves get overhead. The preferred wind direction is northeast, which helps keep the waves clean and fun. This spot is also suitable for beginners, offering some nice, accessible waves for those just starting out.
The environment at Les Dunes can get a little crowded at times with wave jumpers, especially when conditions are good. However, it’s still a solid option for those who want to enjoy some fun waves without a massive lineup. Just remember to check the tide and wind conditions before heading out!
