Additional Information

May be the best left on Mahe island. Anse Poules Bleues is a freight train left which can be totally epic on a huge South swell. This attracts an instant crowd on one of the five or so days it will break in a good winter. SE trade winds blow directly offshore. This surf spot is a wrapping left breaks close to the shore.

Atmosphere

The best left on Mahe but rarely breaks. It needs a huge south swell to work which is very rare on Mahe island. If you are lucky, may be you could surf this spot during the SE trade winds or transition period.

General

can be very crowded when it works but good atmosphere in general.
