Well sheltered behind long dykes, Port Camargue plage sud is a hot spot for freestyle kitesurfers. It's easy to get to, easy to park and often easy to ride. On a windy day, it's not unusual to come across a few local champions practising new tricks. If you're a keen photographer, you'll find an inexhaustible supply of daredevils who'll be happy to help you fill your film.

> 1H45 from the house, Wild and magnificent, the nautical spotlight welcomes a huge number of kitesurfers on windy days. Although the wind isn't exactly stable due to the surrounding terrain, the water is a real change of scenery! You'll be sailing through the hills, sometimes with a view of the Pyrenees (covered in snow in winter, superb!).

> And only 1 hour from home, the Etang du Ponant, the perfect spot for wingfoiling in Montpellier. Would you like to start out? to improve? to bring the whole family? Then you've come to the right place!
