Canet-en-Roussillon

The Roussillon beach in Canet-en-Roussillon, Occitanie, is a lively spot on the Mediterranean coast, bordered by a long stretch of fine sand. It is a popular place for local kitesurf schools due to its proximity to Perpignan and easy access from the coastal road.

Close to the famous Pont des Basses, this spot mainly attracts experienced riders when the tramontane picks up, but remains accessible to beginners in summer with lighter winds. The atmosphere is friendly, shared between kites, wingfoils, and bathers during the season.

With its breakwater generating small waves, it offers varied conditions depending on the season, ideal for progressing safely with the many schools on site.
