About this spot
Set against Normandy's world-famous limestone cliffs, this is a spot where the scenery speaks for itself. It is a technical location with limited space, making it a unique but demanding place to ride. Launch areas are restricted and the wind can be gusty near the cliffs. This spot is best suited for experienced kiters looking for a scenic session in the English Channel.
