The Pointe de Saire is the most prized spot of the CNPS community and the base of the Val de Saire sailing club, located at Jonville (commune of Réville). The CNPS club is right on site with a security boat, lawn for rigging, and full community support. The spot is polyvalent: flat water by SE to SW, waves by NE to E, freeride by N to NW.
The point's geometry allows a wide wind range — almost all directions except pure N. NE (falling tide): nice small to medium waves. E and SE: waves regardless of tide. W: flat, expert-only (progressive current carries offshore). SW: choppy. The CNPS documents and monitors all Val de Saire spots. Seals can be seen sheltering on the beach during NE cartouches.
The spot works year-round: 27 rideable days a month on average, at 15 °C. It peaks in May, with 335 hours of usable wind.
