Carnac is an SSW-facing beach break in Brittany, France. It picks up swell from WSW to WNW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 82% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the NNE: light winds or NNE breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while SSW onshores chop it up.
