Today's score by level (at the day's best, out of 100)
The first Italian spot across the border, in a magnificent setting. A fairly well-known spot that works often but is rarely amazing — it closes out a lot. Beautiful surroundings.
Mostly surfable from late autumn to early spring, during SE or SW storms depending on the spot. Sessions are rare but memorable.
Ideal for starting out or longboarding. Mellow waves, little current, surf school usually nearby.
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.
Calandre is rather accessible to beginners when the waves stay small and the wind is light. Still, check currents, tide and local guidelines before entering.
The ideal wind at Calandre comes broadly from North: it's offshore, which helps shape and hold the waves. A strong onshore wind generally degrades conditions.
Around Calandre, you can also check conditions at Gruissan, Narbonne-Plage, Port-la-Nouvelle. Compare the scores, wind and swell direction before choosing where to surf.
