Hossegor - La Gravière surf forecast
Beach break in Landes, France, scored hour by hour in NORDR against the wind angle for the way it faces, the swell direction it wants, and the tide it works on.
How it breaks
Hossegor La Graviere is a steep beach-break sand shelf that creates short, sucky world-class barrels on mid and falling tides with W/NW swell and easterly wind.
Getting there
Use the Plage des Landais car parks and walk over the dunes to the less-developed La Graviere section.
Watch out for
- Strong rip currents and baines run through the beach.
- Heavy shore break on the steep beach can slam surfers onto sand.
Crowd
WSL events and heavy surf days bring spectators, media and high-performance lineups.
Tide dependency: not the limiter
Tide is not what decides whether this break works, so NORDR does not score it as one. Fetch, swell period and the wind angle against the beach do the deciding here.
