At low tide, the shallow water offers good safety, but be careful not to get stranded too far from the shore at the end of the tide.
A lifeguard station is open in July and August from 11 am to 6 pm, but outside this period, it is important to sail in groups or inform someone of your outing.
Conditions can change rapidly with the tides, always check the schedules before heading out.

The Stêr beach, located in Penmarch in South Finistère, is a vast stretch of 5 kilometers of fine sand that extends from Kérity to Guilvinec. Facing directly south, this beach attracts both families and sports enthusiasts seeking thrills. It is a spot highly appreciated by local kitesurfers for its accessibility and the consistency of its conditions.

The Stêr has become a must-visit in the region, hosting kitesurf schools year-round. The atmosphere is relaxed, with good infrastructure for visitors: parking, picnic tables, and playgrounds for children. It is a place where a great vibe of a well-established sliding spot prevails.
