In the 1970s in Brittany, when only fishing boats left their wake across an untouched maritime horizon, a few pioneers claimed the territory and created the unique story of surfing in Brittany. Watching surfers carve their lines on the waves of La Torche, the Crozon Peninsula, or Guidel, it feels as though they’ve always been there. But at the time, the sea’s bounty was earned solely from the nets. These pioneers, inspired by the pure Hawaiian spirit of surfing, shaped the history of surfing in Brittany with each wave they rode.
