L'Ouhabia

Access is via the Uhabia beach area near the river, with free/public parking close to the shore described in multiple reports. Kitesurfing is strongly tied to seasonal rules: a summer daytime restriction is reported (including a ban in marked bathing zones during July and August), alongside a reported narrower morning-only window in summer (6–10 AM) and permission outside that period (off-season). The spot is also repeatedly flagged for an exposed/agitated plan d’eau in winter and for strong currents near the river and during tidal shifts, so navigating alone is discouraged. For water sports, tide choice is a recurring safety lever. Several hazards cluster around low tide: affleurant/submerged rocks at the ends and along the south side of the beach are repeatedly mentioned, which is why higher tide is commonly preferred for kitesurfing. For surfing, shorebreak severity and wave behavior are emphasized; mid-tide is often described as the more manageable option compared with high tide, though one source also mentions high-tide preference to avoid rocks. Wave quality is reported as good to excellent, with beach sand shifting peaks that can provide multiple takeoff sections. Finally, water quality is a standout variable. The spot is described as dirty/poor and particularly susceptible to deterioration after heavy rain because the river inflow can bring runoff. Visitors are advised to check conditions after storms and to respect local safety and crowd guidance (including post chief adaptation where reported), given limited rescue availability at the spot level and seasonal lifeguards.
