Plage Kermyl faces S. Which swells reach it — and therefore whether there is anything worth riding — depends on that aspect more than on the open-ocean forecast height.
Today's wind is onshore at 5 kn. Onshore is the awkward one for surfing: it adds chop and pushes the wave over before it can stand up.

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 small, calm cove of fine white sand backed by pine, facing SSE, with rocks framing its edges that form natural tidal pools at low tide. Shallow, sheltered water suits family swimming and paddleboarding, and low tide exposes shellfish-gathering areas. Unsupervised, with maritime rescue provided by a nearby SNSM lifeboat station. Dogs are banned June-September. At high tide the strip of sand narrows considerably.
