Spot intelligence.

Rochebonne's north-facing Saint-Malo setting has a selective swell window and a very large tidal range, so timing matters strongly.

Character

01

Plage de Rochebonne is defined by north-facing urban beach peaks over sand with rock margins. 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

02

N–NW swell, s–sw offshore and moving mid tide · large range form the profile baseline. SWELLRADAR treats 0.5–2.0 m as a working range, not a guarantee of breaking-wave size.

03

Match the active peak to your ability and leave space for other surfers in the water. Pay particular attention to large tidal range, rock structures, cold water. Local signs and advice always take priority.
