Overview

Around Vannes and the Rhuys peninsula, we are in a very varied kite area at the bottom of the Gulf of Morbihan, with beaches that change quite a bit depending on the tide and the wind direction. Landrezac is often mentioned as the most consistent spot in the area, with space and a rather flat water surface at low tide, while Penvins works better at high tide depending on the coefficients. The area is well known for learning and progression, with quite reassuring zones when the conditions are well chosen. However, it is really important to take tides and marked navigation areas into account, especially during the summer period. Local sliding atmosphere, quite accessible, and interesting for safe navigation when you know the right time slots.
