Anglet - Le Furoncle
Edit SpotAbout
This recent spot has appeared when the new jetty has been constructed. A new sandbar is fixed here. It works only with a big swell. It's a very dangerous spot: rips are violent because it's the rivermouth of the river "Adour", the take-off is just in front of the jetty...The tube is very large and the waves are hollow but only few surfers have the level to surf it. Sometimes it's only surfable by towin....
