Surf Break: Kerloch

Name: Kerloch
Type: point
Reliability: fairly consistent
Best Swell: SW Offshore Wind: NE

Kerloch in Brittany is an exposed beach break that has quite consistent surf, although summer tends to be mostly flat. Offshore winds blow from the northeast. Waves just as likely from local windswells as from distant groundswells and the best swell direction is from the southwest. The beach break provides left and right handers. Best around mid tide. Rarely crowded here. Take care of rips and pollution.
