Anglet - Madrague in La Cote Basque is an exposed beach/jetties break that has pretty consitent surf and can work at any time of the year. Offshore winds blow from the east with some shelter here from southwest winds. Most of the surf here comes from groundswells and the ideal swell angle is from the west. The beach break provides left and right handers. Good surf at all stages of the tide. When the surf is up, it can get quite busy in the water.
