Plage de l’Anse du Sud
France · Pays de la Loire
The Anse du Sud beach, located in Préfailles behind the Saint-Gildas point in Loire-Atlantique, is a beautiful, well-sheltered cove that offers a preserved natural setting. It is a spot appreciated by local practitioners for its accessibility and tranquil atmosphere, away from the hustle and bustle of the main beaches.
The spot is distinguished by its particular configuration: a fine sandy beach with a water area protected by the Saint-Gildas point. The Anse du Sud mainly works with large swells and onshore winds, making it a selective but interesting spot for riders looking for specific conditions.
Historical averages by month — not a live forecast.
Anse du Sud is a very sheltered beach that benefits from the natural protection of the Saint-Gildas point. The spot mainly works with large swells and onshore wind (north). In summer, access is limited to authorized launch zones, with navigation restrictions in the first 50 meters from the water's edge from June 15 to September 15. The water area is ideal at low tide where the fine sand offers an excellent sliding surface. At high tide, the spot can become less accessible. The launch and navigation area is well defined, but swimming zones must be respected during the summer period. The current can be present near the Saint-Gildas point, requiring special attention. The offshore wind (onshore) is the ideal condition for this spot, creating beautiful waves when conditions allow.
