Plage de Kerhillio faces SW, open to the prevailing westerlies, so the wind arrives off the water rather than filtered through the land — the clean, steady flow kite surfing wants, and the reason gusts here are sea breezes rather than land turbulence.
Today's wind is offshore at 6 kn. Offshore is the one to be careful with for kite surfing — a failure blows you away from the beach, so it is a spot for a safety boat or a change of plan rather than a solo session.
Over the published window Plage de Kerhillio clears 60/100 for kite surfing 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, 2 of 10 daylight hours clear that line at Intermediate.
Among the 29 scored spots within reach today, Plage de Kerhillio ranks 20th for kite surfing. The order changes by discipline: the same conditions that put a spot top for one sport can drop it down the list for another.
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.
This 2 km sandy Atlantic beach-break faces SW, a multi-sport hub for surfing, kitesurfing, windsurfing and bodyboarding, flat in summer but powerful in autumn/winter. Shifting sandbars produce waves to 2 m; beginners use the western end. In high season, kitesurfing and windsurfing are zoned to the east, with a supervised swim area elsewhere. Lifeguards operate daily 12:30-19:00, 2 July-31 August. Rocks can surface east; rip currents worst at high tide.
