Boiron / Lake Geneva kitesurf, wingfoil and windsurf spot

Small spot, especially in summer. The best approach is to prepare your lines along the Boiron river and launch your kite at the edge of the window right at the point.

Avoid storing your gear in the launch zone...

On the water in southwest or Vaudaire wind, it's amazing. Steady wind, waves, and incredible scenery with the Alps as a backdrop.

Best not to drift past the Boirons point as it's sheltered below. It's also a shooting range area, so if it's active, don't get close unless you want holes in your kite... or your wetsuit.

Si vous avez un équipier, faites-lui signe depuis l'eau que vous poser et descender votre aile depuis l'eau et lui sur la petite plage.
Si vous êtes seul...démerdez-vous, on ride pas seul ! Non, plu sérieusement, la fois ou je l'ai fait seul, je me suis mis sur la plage, l'aile vers le large et j'ai largué. Ensuite rouler les lignes rapidement pour récupérer l'aile ou bien longer une ligne en tension jusqu'à l'aile.

Take the Morges East exit, follow the lakeside road towards St-Prex. At the roundabout between Morges and St-Prex, take the lake direction and follow signs for 'La Maison de la Rivière'.

New: there is now a car park just after the roundabout and the rest of the access is on foot (300m).

SW-W: ideal. Don't drift downwind of the point as the area is completely sheltered. E-SE (Vaudaire): it rarely blows this far. Bise (NE wind): very committed spot! The area is completely sheltered. However, you can launch from the water with the right kite size (it can be hard to judge from shore!), drift into the bay and relaunch in deep water. Warning: the Bise tends to push your kite back to shore due to suction effect behind the point. Be patient...
