About Mahambo
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces NE (57°), so it takes swell from the NE. The wind blows offshore from the SW (237°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 3–12 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 1.5 km out (1 in 147). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would spill softly. The sea is about 24°C in August, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 29°C in January, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Mahambo. Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot.
Water about 27°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).
