Plage centrale du Porge

Plage centrale du Porge is a sandy beach on the French Atlantic coast that stretches for several kilometers with a broad, accessible shoreline. The beach is backed by protective dunes and pine forest that form a natural barrier and frame the landscape.

Fishing communities began using this coastline in the 19th century, and that maritime connection has endured to the present day. The beach has remained relatively unchanged, preserving much of its original natural state.

Water sports, particularly surfing, define how people use this stretch of coast, with schools and rental services operating throughout the year. You will see boards and wetsuits everywhere, and the local community gathers around these activities.

Parking is available near the beach, and lifeguards patrol the water during the busy summer season. Visitors should check conditions before entering the water and come prepared for changing weather.

A network of bicycle paths links the beach directly to the village and connects to a larger cycling route that follows the Atlantic coast. This allows visitors to explore the shoreline on two wheels away from car traffic.
