Plage du Trez Hir faces SE, away from the prevailing Atlantic swell. For surfing that means it needs a specific direction to work rather than picking up the everyday groundswell, so it is a spot to check rather than assume.
Today's wind is cross-onshore at 3 kn. Leaning onshore, so expect some texture on the face for surfing — rideable, but short of clean.
Over the published window Plage du Trez Hir clears 60/100 for 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 31 scored spots within reach today, Plage du Trez Hir ranks 10th for 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.
A broad, 1.2 km sandy beach with rocky outcrops at both ends and shifting sandbars, backed by a fort on a nearby island. Mid-tide brings mainly left-handers, with occasional tubular rights at high tide; conditions are considered beginner-friendly for windsurfing when swell is small. Kiting is banned in summer due to bather numbers and unsafe at high tide when the beach narrows. Supervised bathing runs July-August. Tidal range reaches up to 8 metres.
