Ahh, beachbreaks. Usually, the term suggests random peaky waves, non-threatening bottom construction, and the ability to spread out and find some space to yourself. 

And in France, there's an occasional resemblance to the North Shore.

Here's some recent footage from the south-west of France, starring Jeremy Flores, Marc Lacomare, Kyllian Guerin, Fred Compagnon, Nelson Cloarec, Charly Quivront, Aritz Aranburu, Adrien Valero, Nathan Curren and Noa Dupouy, with music by Mi Nave.
