Pen-Hat

📍 Local Knowledge

Pen-Hat in Finistere, Brittany, is an exposed beach break that typically remains flat during the summer months. It performs best with a west swell and offshore winds from the northeast, receiving a mix of groundswells and windswells. The spot provides both left and right-handers and is best around mid-tide when the tide is rising. While it very rarely gets crowded, surfers should be extremely cautious of dangerous rips. The most consistent clean waves typically occur during the spring, particularly in March.
