Tougues kitesurf, wingfoil and paddle spot
France · Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes
Overview
Small deserted beach during off-season. Restaurants and burger/beer convenient for breaks.
This spot can be very dangerous because of the rocks, pylons and trees. In summer, the beach gets extremely crowded, making it unsuitable for kiting.
However, winging is fine all year round — just be careful of swimmers and divers with foils.
