Surf Break: Fecamp

Fecamp in Normandy is an exposed beach break that has reasonably consistent surf, although summer tends to be mostly flat. Offshore winds are from the southwest. Windswells and groundswells in equal measure and the optimum swell angle is from the west. Waves at the beach are mainly lefts. Good surf at all stages of the tide. Take care of rocks in the line up.
