Plage de la Jetée faces SW, open to the prevailing swell and wind. For e-foiling that is the hard direction: expect the surface to be workable only when the forecast genuinely drops, not on an average day.
Today's wind is cross-shore at 3 kn. Light enough that the surface should stay workable for e-foiling.
Over the published window Plage de la Jetée clears 60/100 for e-foiling at every ability from Beginner to Expert — an unusually broad spot, which normally means a range of conditions rather than one narrow sweet spot. Today, 10 of 10 daylight hours clear that line at Intermediate.
Among the 31 scored spots within reach today, Plage de la Jetée is level with 3 others at the top for e-foiling — nothing nearby is scoring better, so pick on distance.
Satellite-derived bathymetry with 10 m pixels and 10 cm vertical resolution out to ~40 m depth. The shape of the seabed is what determines where and how waves break.
Most apps run a single global model at 9–25 km. We blend regional NWP from national meteorological offices at 1.3–2 km — UK Met Office UKV, Météo-France AROME HD, ItaliaMeteo ICON-2I — with ECMWF IFS for the 8-day horizon. Finer resolution means the sea breeze, cliff funnelling and bay shadowing that changes everything for a session.
A nearshore wave model propagates the spectrum across the bathymetric mesh — modelling refraction, shoaling, dissipation, focusing and breaking as it goes. Most apps stop at swell + wind. We go further.
10 sport models × 4 ability levels weight wave height, period, wind, tide and breaking conditions differently — calibrated against ridden sessions so the scores mean what they say.
A sheltered, flat-water beach on the inner shore of a tidal basin, fronted by a long historic pier, sandy-to-muddy bottom, no surf since the basin blocks ocean swell. Swimming is tide-dependent: at low tide water recedes far out, and the beach can vanish at high tidal coefficients, so entry is only practical around high tide. Suited to paddleboard, kayak, sailing and swimming at high water rather than surfing or kitesurfing. A nautical centre is on-site.
