St-Girons Plage is a well-known surf spot located along a lengthy stretch of beach, about 12 kilometers long. It attracts a mix of surfers, including both locals and visitors, and has a laid-back vibe. The area offers camping sites in the nearby forest, making it a popular choice for surfers looking to enjoy some time by the sea. The beach is also frequented by naturists, adding to its diverse atmosphere.

This spot caters mainly to intermediate surfers. The waves can be decent, especially when the swell comes from the NorthWest. It handles swell sizes starting from 1 ft (0.3 meters) and can deliver both left and right beach breaks over sand. The best conditions usually come with the wind from the east and can work well at low, mid, and high tides. While it might not always match the barrels found in Hossegor, St-Girons Plage still has its share of fun and rideable beachbreak waves.

Surf schools and rental shops are available for those looking to catch their first waves or improve their skills. The beach plays host to various surf events, including the German Surf Championships, which means there's a bit of competitive spirit in the air. With its combination of natural beauty and surf appeal, St-Girons Plage remains a spot worth checking out if you find yourself in the area.
