Plage du Moulin Blanc faces S, and that aspect decides whether the day's wind arrives clean off the water or broken up by the land — which matters more for wing foiling than the forecast speed alone.
Today's wind is onshore at 3 kn. Onshore is the safest direction for wing foiling here — anything that goes wrong drifts you back to the beach — at the cost of a choppier surface.

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 sheltered, roughly 500 m sandy beach on calm inner bay waters, with no ocean swell reaching shore. The flat water suits beginner-friendly kitesurfing, windsurfing, wingfoiling, sailing, kayaking and swimming. Kitesurf and board sports are banned 1 July-31 August, 09:00-19:00, to protect swimmers, and military and commercial vessel traffic add navigational constraints. Lifeguards supervise July-August, 13:00-19:00. Tidal currents here are significant.
