Forecasts come from ~8 km resolution models: very local effects (a sheltering pier, a lagoon pass) are not captured.
Sea-state data comes from a marine model cell about 7.1 km from this point — local nearshore conditions can differ.
Wave heights are significant heights: individual waves up to 2× this height still occur.
Four wave models are compared for this point: EWAM, GWAM, Météo-France WAM and ECMWF WAM.
Tide times derived from modelled sea level (± a few tens of minutes) — not official tide tables.
Missing data is shown as missing — never silently estimated.

Official sampling is weekly at best; between two samples, recent rain is the recognized warning signal (EEA)
Jellyfish: no recent info. If you're there, tell us what you see — even “none” helps the next swimmer.
Water quality · Good · 2025 season
Computed from the samples of the last four bathing seasons. It says what the water here has been, not what it is today: after heavy rain, even an excellent beach degrades for a day or two.
Health authority classification (EU directive 2006/7/EC), published once per bathing season
In all cases: bright swim cap and tow float so boats can see you.

Worth knowing
The nearby rocky seabed still shelters native flat oysters (Ostrea edulis), a living trace of this stretch of Morbihan's long oyster-farming heritage.
