How we know where there are no waves

Every cove opens to the sea in one direction. If the wind blows from the land, the water stays still; if it blows in from the sea, it brings the waves right up to the shore. We match the real wind with the orientation of each cove and tell you which ones are sheltered.

Illustration of a cove seen from above: the wind blows from the pine woods out to sea and the water is calm, with a kayak.

Offshore wind

Calm

It blows from the pine woods out to sea. The water in the cove stays still.

Illustration of the same cove with an onshore wind: the waves break on the shore and the foam reaches the sand.

Onshore wind

Rough

It blows in through the mouth of the cove and pushes the waves right up to the sand.
