La plage de la Grande Cote is a vast sand beach with dedicated kitezone on the ocean-facing seaside of Fromentine. Small lagoons form within the sandbanks, where medium size waves can occasionally break in strong NW winds.
Flat water at low tide. Wind from south to north west. Spot suited for beginners, as is particularly uncrowded and low tide offers standing-depth shallow waters.
