Today's score by level (at the day's best, out of 100)
Unique convex beach in Europe. Surfable on S swell.
Surfable all year. Autumn (Sep-Nov) is the best season: powerful swells, water still mild, less crowd.
Good level required. You can stand, paddle and read a peak. When it fires, better know what you're doing.
Easy beach access, parking usually nearby. Ask locally about seasonal currents.
Wear an appropriate wetsuit. Scout the currents before you paddle out. Respect the locals and right-of-way. Check weather and tides.
Groix usually works best around mid-falling. The tide shapes the sandbanks and the depth over the reef, so check the day's tide times before your session.
Groix is rather recommended for intermediate surfers. If you're a beginner, prefer a surf school, a small swell and a suitable tide, or look for a more sheltered nearby spot.
The ideal wind at Groix comes broadly from North: it's offshore, which helps shape and hold the waves. A strong onshore wind generally degrades conditions.
Around Groix, you can also check conditions at Fort-Bloqué, Erdeven, Plouharnel. Compare the scores, wind and swell direction before choosing where to surf.
