Plage de Wissant Canoe Forecast

Wissant · France

Plage de Wissant scores 76/100 for canoe today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces NW. A wide, NW-facing sandy beach between two chalk headlands, an exposed beach break with sandbanks giving lefts and rights. Cape-amplified winds and a large tidal range (to 7.6 m) shape a noted kite/windsurf spot; strong rips and high-tide compression demand caution. From 1 July-31 August kiting is banned in the buoyed swim zone; a kite zone lies north of it. A part-submerged wreck sits near the boundary at mid-tide. Lifeguards staff a summer rescue post.
