Character
01Les Estagnots is defined by powerful left + right sandbar peaks over shifting sand banks. The shape can change with swell angle, period and the active section, so the live score should always be paired with a visual check from shore.
Best setup
02W–NW swell, e–se offshore and mid to high · bank dependent form the profile baseline. SWELLRADAR treats 0.9–2.8 m as a working range, not a guarantee of breaking-wave size.
Lineup read
03This is an advanced profile: positioning, entry and exit should be assessed before committing. Pay particular attention to baïnes and rips, heavy shorebreak, powerful sets. Local signs and advice always take priority.
