Plage du Boucanet
France · Occitanie
The Boucanet beach, located in Grau-du-Roi between La Grande Motte and the city center, is the ideal backup spot when the other beaches of Port Camargue are overcrowded. It is a place appreciated by experienced riders for its versatility and authentic local atmosphere. In the evening, the beachside huts come alive and offer a well-deserved break after a good session.
As the only spot on the right bank of Grau-du-Roi, Boucanet stretches for nearly 3 kilometers of fine sand. The beach is quite wide in the north and gradually narrows towards the south. It is a versatile spot where all levels can ride, from beginner to expert, with conditions suitable for different riding styles.

Boucanet mainly works with west and northwest winds, which come in side-on to the beach. These directions bring beautiful waves in the large bay without dikes, ideal for freeride and big jumps. In sustained west winds, the water surface transforms with a big swell that delights riders seeking thrills.
The spot also works with south and southeast winds, offering great flexibility depending on weather conditions. In west wind, it is possible to ride up to the sandbank at the tip of Espiguette to find a perfectly flat playground, ideal for freestyle.
Particular attention in the evening: the wind tends to shift to north-northeast and creates significant wind shadows hitting the buildings along the edge of the spot. It is recommended to return to the shore at the end of the day to avoid issues. Launching is easy from the beach, with accessible entries at 47 and 50 for people with reduced mobility. The spot is closed during the summer period (July-August) for kitesurfing.
