Le Rozel in Normandy is an exposed beach break that has fairly consistent surf, although summer tends to be mostly flat. Works best in offshore winds from the east. Groundswells and windswells are equally likely and the optimum swell angle is from the west. The beach break offers both left and right hand waves. Good surf at all stages of the tide. Rarely crowded here.
