What to do in Plage de la Govelle? Are there any attractions or entertainments in region?

For those who wish to engage in something more extreme than a lazy holiday on the beach, it is worth noting that Plage de la Govelle is excellent for surfing. This kind of activity is suitable for beginners and for professionals. The waves in this region you can see in the photos above or study the reviews by our users.

I had a great time at the beach, which is perfect for surfing. It's a combination of sand and reef.

When the tide is too low for the expansive sandy beach of La Baule's bay, this beach is the ideal spot to visit and have a great time. It's perfect for families and water sports.

This beach is great - it's within walking distance of toilets and there's a cold water shower right on the beach. Plus, the scenery is beautiful with lovely trees on the sides.
