We’ve rounded upthe 5 best wing spots foil in Finistère.

Located at the end of the world, in the commune of Crozon, the beach at Goulien is a well spot de wing foil renowned. Easy to access, it’s one of Crozon’s largest beaches. Goulien beach enjoys north-westerly and south-westerly winds. On days when the wind is more southerly, you can move closer to Kersiguénou beach or Kerloc’h beach. This way, you’ll benefit from more stable wind conditions. On days when the conditions are right, the waves get bigger and the beach becomes a great surfing spot foil.

Located on the border between South Finistère and Morbihan, the Laïta river is a wingfoil spot with many advantages. For flatlanders, it’s possible to wingfoil in the Laïta basin just behind. If you prefer waves, the beach at Guidel (Morbihan) is just the place for you. Finally, if you’re looking for more swell, just head a little further offshore. To access this spot, you can leave from Le Pouldu on the Boulevard de la Laïta parking lot, or you can leave from Guidel-Plage.
It’s possible to foil from all directions. However, to avoid irregular winds, it’s best to go when the wind is south-westerly. Beware, however, that currents can be quite strong in high coefficients. Finally, we advise you to go when the tide is high or almost high. Indeed, at low and half-tide, there isn’t enough bottom to foil, and currents are rather numerous and strong.

Described as one of the best wave spots in North Finistère, Le Dossen in Santec is a great wingfoil spot for anyone looking for a good thrill. The wind is mostly north-westerly or south-westerly. The white sandy beach is home to waves of up to 4 meters (off the spot) on the best days.

The slipway to Océanopolis is another popular access point for wing enthusiasts foil. The launch is convenient and it’s easy to find a parking space nearby.
Finally, for those who are not afraid of rocks, Kernisi beach in Plougastel is an excellent starting point for foiling all over the Brest roadstead. It’s the Sroka team’s favorite starting point.
