About Safari Vezo house break

Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.

The spot faces W (291°), so it takes swell from the W. The wind blows offshore from the E (111°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up, because of a steep sea floor. It works in 3–13 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very steeply: 10 m deep about 100 m out (1 in 9). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 24°C in August, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 29°C in January, its warmest (no wetsuit). For intermediate surfers the best months are usually May and June, with about 2 good days in 7; in October, November and December, about 0. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Anakao, 1.3 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 1 wind sports 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).
