That's quite a good time to visit there, as the bulk of the tourist and swimmers will be gone. June to September is honestly a pain with so many restrictions in force, struggle to park, struggle to launch, struggle to use the few authorized channels to get at the back... Kind of spoils the fun a little bit in my opinion. Espiguette and Grau du Roi are great options There's a whole bay to play in, with typical foiling missions exploring that bay in safety with the dominant NW or SW winds. Tends to be busy inshore at times, and just be wary of some sketchy launches by the odd clueless user. SE/S/SW works anywhere on the South facing beaches closer to Montpellier, that allows a good spread of kiters along the coast.
If you want space, it's worth going to Beauduc, magical place, windy, salty, isolated. But don't tell your rental car company...
I don't know about regulations for le Jai near Marseille Airport, but I think there's huge potential for hydrofoiling, as it's really massive with lots of landscape features to entertain your sights. (That also includes some petrochemical eyesores, though)
