Anse la Raie

Huge lagoon on the northern tip of the island with almost two kilometers of “one way riding. Tide does not play a big role for this spot unless you go for the rocky areas which are well visible because of the clear water. Some waves are to be had on the reef, but these are best discovered by the more experienced as they are very shallow waves breaking on nasty coral. On the reef enclosing this bay are two wave spots that are regularly ridden by the locals, “Yachya” and “Panic”. When you enter the water at the main surf beach, there is a very narrow channel of sand, which has been created by the locals to access the water without stepping on stones. Nice fairly safe beach (fine sand) is situated right next to the public beach in front of the sports and youth center with sideshore wind conditions. Small sandy beach, but bigger grassy area next to it. A bit of care must be taken when coming in for the big casuarina trees which like to chew up a bit of kite now and then. Usual strength of wind in winter is around 5-6 Bft, and Northeast to Southeast are ideal for this spot. Best time of the year is from June to September, otherwise your chances are 50/50. Mild temps, although some sun protection is recommended for the winter months. Water: Shallow, Flat, Chop. Features: Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
