Le Fozo (Morbihan)

Le Fozo is an exposed beach break on the Morbihan coast (Brittany), known for fairly consistent surf that—when conditions align—can deliver powerful, often hollow waves. The break typically works for both left and right-hand rides, and its best performance is tied closely to high tide. For surf quality, northeast winds are favored because they act offshore and help groom the swell into cleaner faces. The ideal swell comes from the southwest, and sources note that the spot can become flat in summer when swell and/or wind alignment are less favorable. Ride length is generally short and fast, with the most hollow, energetic sections showing up around the right tide and swell mix. Seasonally, spring is the key window for getting consistent, more surfable conditions—especially March. Clean, rideable waves are reported to occur about 32% of the time in March, while the wind can be blown out around 51% of the time, so choosing the right day matters. Autumn is also described as offering more consistent swell and offshore wind setup. Safety-wise, this is a no-swimming spot. Dangerous baïnes/currents (rip currents and strong shorebreak are specifically noted) make swimming strictly prohibited. Always check the tide (the wave quality can close out quickly at lower levels) and be aware that the walk from parking can be steep in sections.
