Dangers

 Additional Information

There are many spots in Skhirat which are all easily accessible. One is very dangerous. It is in between two islands, and there is only a right wave, on the other side of the island there is a left. All these waves can be paddled to. At the beach, there are three different waves. Le Pic is very powerful, and left and right. The middle also is sometimes powerful, left and right but mostly right. The spot in front of the hotel is only right with sometimes nice tubes.

Atmosphere

Very nice spot, easily accessible, and close to other spots. What is good, is that there are many spots in one spot. When one spot isn't working another one works. With very bad weather, some big waves break, but they are only accessible with a boat. Probably need a jet-ski for some tow-in.
