SPOT
The Sotavento lagoon
The ideal gliding spot to start and progress. Windy, where you can reach your feet, and without choppy.
The Sotavento lagoon is a protected natural area. The practice of nautical activities takes place in harmony with this environment. At high tide you will be sailing in an area where you can walk. At low tide, the lagoon empties, and you can evolve outside the lagoon, safety is ensured by jet ski. The weather conditions are ideal from April to September. Then from October to March, the wind conditions are certainly more random, but it remains one of the most interesting destinations less than 5 hours from Paris.

Whatever your insurance, do not forget to take the necessary information with you during your trip abroad: name and contact details (telephone, email) of your assistance company and the number of the contract taken out.
This information will be requested upon arrival by our local correspondent.
