L'Etang d'Ingril - The spot for all levels!
-
You can find Tramontana-Windsurf on the edge of the saltwater lake "L'Etang d'Ingril" in Frontignan-Plage, approx. 25km to the south of Montpellier. The shallow lake offers ideal conditions for beginners, intermediates, speed-surfers and freestylers. The sandy beaches of the Mediterranean are only 5 minutes away from us too. There are also many restaurants, shops and a great choice of accommodation very close and accessible by foot
The famous wind at our spot, altthough colloquially named "Les Aresquiers" by the locals, is the Tramontana. This north-western wind is accelerated by the mountainous environment and is strongest in spring and atumn, which is great for all competent windsurfers. Beginners may also have fun during these periods of the year, as the wind is lighter and more manageable in the morning. Futhermore, our center is situated in the leeward direction and the wind always carrys you back to the shore!
Sometimes we also experience the Mistral wind. This north wind is not as strong as the Tramontana. Particularly in wintertime there's also the Marin, a south-eastern wind which often brings some bigger waves - but only at the coast, on the lake the water is always flat! Most importantly in summertime we enjoy the thermal wind, which reaches up to 4 beaufort on hot days.
