Historical data
Location guide
La Graviere, located in Hossegor, France, is famously known for some of the highest quality surf in Europe. It's a true surfer's paradise suitably christened as the European surf capital. One of the major standout features of this beach break is its powerful and consistent waves. The barrels formed are remarkably fast and heavy, offering surfers an electrifying blend of challenge and thrill. Depending on the tides and swells, the waves can range anywhere from 1 to 3 meters, with larger swells making an appearance during autumn. As for the sea, the water temperatures can vary quite extensively depending on the season. In the summer months, from June to September, you'll find warmer temperatures ranging from 19°C to 23°C. This makes it a delightful time for those planning to spend hours in the water. However, the water can get considerably colder in winter, dropping down to about 12°C-14°C, certainly a condition for the more dedicated and resilient surfers. Furthermore, the sandy bottom of this beach ensures an easier escape from wipeouts, which is mainly why it attracts both professional surfers as well as beginners seeking to upgrade their skills. However, it's worth noting that the strong rip currents and unpredictable beach breaks can be challenging for newcomers to navigate. When it comes to wind, it predominantly comes from the northeast, providing a nice offshore condition. But, like any beach break, the surf can be impacted by strong onshore winds which tend to make the conditions more challenging and the waves choppier. In conclusion, La Graviere is regarded as a premier surfing spot due to its consistency, water temperature, and strong waves. It's a place that offers something for everyone, from being a perfect training ground for novices to serving as an adrenaline-fueled playground for seasoned surfing enthusiasts.
