About Cote D'Or Lodge
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces NE (24°), so it takes swell from the NE. The wind blows offshore from the SW (204°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 3–14 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves gently: 10 m deep about 450 m out (1 in 45). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would crumble. The sea is about 27°C in July, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in March, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is La Digue, 9.4 km away (about 20 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot and 1 wind sports spot.
Water about 29°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
