Risks & Safety

  • Lizay beach is a spot for powerful waves reserved for experienced riders.

  • Rocks and reef are present, especially towards the point and at low tide, which requires careful scouting of the navigation area before entering the water.

  • The shorebreak can be very strong during big swells, making launching, entering the water, and returning to the shore tricky.

Les-Portes-en-Ré

The Lizay beach, at Portes-en-Ré, is a large wild beach bordered by the Lizay dunes, among the most impressive on the island of Ré. Here we are on the north-western face of the island, facing the Atlantic, with a long stretch of sand and an unobstructed view up to the Baleines lighthouse.

This spot is frequented by surfers and experienced kitesurfers, attracted by the solid swell and consistent wind. The atmosphere remains calm and natural, far from urbanization, with a somewhat remote access that limits the crowd and enhances the wild beach aspect.
