The Boucanet beach, located in Grau-du-Roi between La Grande Motte and the city center, is the ideal backup spot when the other beaches of Port Camargue are overcrowded. It is a place appreciated by experienced riders for its versatility and authentic local atmosphere. In the evening, the beachside huts come alive and offer a well-deserved break after a good session.
As the only spot on the right bank of Grau-du-Roi, Boucanet stretches for nearly 3 kilometers of fine sand. The beach is quite wide in the north and gradually narrows towards the south. It is a versatile spot where all levels can ride, from beginner to expert, with conditions suitable for different riding styles.
