Plage Chef de Baie Windsurf Forecast

Fief des Chênes · France

Plage Chef de Baie scores 75/100 for windsurf today at its best ability level (intermediate). The beach faces SW. A small municipal sandy beach behind La Rochelle's fishing and commerce ports, sheltered by a breakwater that tames Atlantic swell. Uniquely among the city's three beaches, it stays swimmable at low tide, though rocky margins make high tide easier for entry. It also works as a backup beach break needing large swell, with a kayak channel, a 5-knot speed limit, and lifeguard cover in July-August, 11:00-19:00. Port proximity brings water-quality sensitivity.
