Plage de Guendrez in Brittany is an exposed beach break that has quite reliable surf, although summer tends to be mostly flat. Works best in offshore winds from the northeast. Waves just as likely from local windswells as from distant groundswells and the ideal swell angle is from the southwest. The beach breaks offer lefts and rights.
