Baie de la Petite Riviére Noire surf guide

Baie de la Petite Riviére Noire is a surf spot located in Mauritius, best known for its unique left-hand wave. This spot requires a boat ride to access, making it a bit of a mission to get there. While it can be a bit inconsistent, many surfers find it worth the effort when the conditions are right. It's important to note that this spot shouldn't be mixed up with Baie de la Petite Riviére in the north.

The surf mainly works on a west swell direction with optimal conditions for waves coming from the west and south. The spot handles swell sizes up to about 3 feet (around 1 meter). The wave breaks over live coral, offering a reef wave that tends to favor high tides. If you’re planning to surf here, aim for southeast winds, which provide the best conditions. However, keep in mind that this spot is more suited for experienced surfers due to the challenging conditions.

When you head out, be aware that paddling the channel isn't advisable, as the current can be quite strong, similar to a fast-flowing river. So, it's best to stick to riding the waves and leave the channel paddling for another day!
