Neufchâtel-Hardelot

Neufchâtel-Hardelot is a WSW-facing beach break in Hauts-de-France, France. It picks up swell from WSW to W, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 93% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the ENE: light winds or ENE breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while WSW onshores chop it up.
