Plage Hourtin Swimming Forecast

Hourtin Plage · France

Plage Hourtin scores 77/100 for swimming today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces SW. A wide, exposed Atlantic sandy beach break backed by protected dunes and pine forest, next to a nature reserve where visitors must keep to marked trails. It works best with a west swell and offshore east wind, producing powerful, hollow waves that can barrel at low tide, suiting surfing and bodyboarding. Baïne rip currents and a heavy low-tide shore-break are hazards. Lifeguards cover the beach mid-June to early September; dogs are banned in summer.
