Plage des Lecques
France · Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur
The plage des Lecques in Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer stretches over a kilometer of fine sand with stunning views of the bay of La Ciotat. It is a spot that attracts kiters for its marked area and family-friendly atmosphere.
Launches take place at the southern end of the beach, near the mouth of the stream le Dégouttant. The setting is perfect for combining sessions and relaxation with family or friends.
Allowed outside the swimming season from October 16 to March 14, this location offers supervised practice within 300 meters of the shore.
Historical averages by month — not a live forecast.
The plage des Lecques is oriented east-west, which favors a side-on or side-shore dominant wind from southwest to southeast, ideal for kitesurfing. The best wind comes from the south or southeast, bringing waves and good power, while the mistral from the northwest can be more onshore and technical.
The navigation area is marked 300 meters from the shore, with launching and takeoff at the southern end near the stream le Dégouttant. Few technical areas within 10 meters, so be cautious of edges during freeride or freestyle sessions.
The water surface varies with the tides: more choppy offshore but generally navigable in the dedicated area. In winter, outside the season, the beach is less crowded, facilitating launches, but always check the official signs for the authorized area.
