It's a little island. You can go with your car over a bridge and you are on the little island. It's like 1.5 km long en 100 meters large.
Atmosphere
The atmosphere is one of the best I ever saw.
General
Super spot with fun wave.

I´ve been to St. Louis for three days (you don´t need more time because there is not much to see here). In three days I have only seen a bigger swell that produced waves with a face height of approximately 2 meters. Even then it was only a very short ride (less than 50 meters) and all waves were closing out. There was a really strong current taking you south (in the direction of Dakar), but only along the shore, it never pulled me out to the open ocean.
Feel free to contact me at demischl@gmx.de if you have any questions.
