Saint-Jean-de-Luz's waters at 5 knots

The Saint-Jean-de-Luz bay, closed by its three breakwaters, a historic shelter on a swell-beaten coast: that is the setting. Weather-wise: ocean breezes inside the bay, the exit demanding respect for the Bay of Biscay swell — with 6 hp you pick the calm morning sea, and the exact area is drawn by the operator at the briefing.

Booking at the right moment

The useful season runs from June to September, bluefin tuna and pelota setting the quayside rhythm. Six-hp fleets being the smallest in the harbour, aim for the morning slot.
