THE BAY OF AUDIERNE

At the tip of Brittany, in southern Finistère, He’enalu welcomes you to an exceptional, unspoilt setting: Audierne Bay. Between the pointe de la Torche and the port of Penhors, you can surf on a long, sublime beach of fine sand bordered by a dune.

The Bay of Audierne is renowned for its consistent waves. It offers a wide range of surfing spots, an ideal panorama for learning and progressing. These must-see destinations will satisfy beginners and experienced surfers alike, and here you can surf all year round!

SPOTS IN SEASON

He’enalu has been running courses at Kermabec beach in Tréguennec since 2008. Since 2024, the school has also been giving lessons on the neighbouring spot at Kerbinigou beach in Tréogat.

The Pointe de la Torche spot was already very well known at the time, while the reputation of the neighbouring beaches had yet to be established. These spots were virgin, but today their potential for learning to surf is recognised and the sites are more popular.

 

 

Facing due west, these spots catch the smallest summer swells and work at all tides. These beaches are ideal for learning to surf, and the fact that they are less busy means they are safer and less stressful than the overcrowded spots at Pors Carn, la Torche, Tronoen and Penhors.

He’enalu welcomes you to this unspoilt natural environment, on sites classified Natura 2000 and protected by the Conservatoire du littoral.

 

OFF-SEASON SPOTS

The Bay of Audierne offers a wide variety of spots, which is what makes it so rich. Your instructor knows them all after 30 years of practice and 20 years of teaching. Depending on the day’s weather conditions, he’ll find you the best spot at the best time.

The roaming that is inherent in the surfing spirit will enable you to surf the best waves of the day!

It’s a chance to share your knowledge of the region’s surf spots and a way for you to get to grips with them in complete safety, so be flexible, mobile and let us guide you!
