Historical averages by month — not a live forecast.
Stêr primarily works with East to Southeast winds, creating side-shore to side-on conditions that are highly appreciated. The spot is ideal at low tide, where the shallow water offers a very flat and safe surface, particularly for beginners and freestyle riders. At high tide, the water surface becomes more dynamic with a bit more depth.
Launching is done directly from the beach, with no major obstacles. The spot is suitable for both beginners and experienced riders due to its gradual configuration. Conditions remain stable and predictable most of the time, making it an excellent training ground. Local schools operate from this beach, which attests to its reliability and safety.
