Cap de la Chèvre surf guide

Cap de la Chèvre is a surf spot located on a rugged headland, offering a unique and challenging wave experience. It's not the easiest place to get to, with a long and tricky access route that may even pose some restrictions. That said, if you're up for the adventure, this spot can deliver some quality surf when conditions align.

When a big swell rolls in, especially from the west, you can expect to see some decent waves here. The surf can handle sizes up to about 4 ft (1.2 meters) and is pretty spot-on with east winds. The waves typically break over uneven reef, predominantly offering right-hander point breaks. It’s really a place for experts, as you'll be navigating swirling currents and potential hazards, particularly at low to mid tide levels. SouthWest and NorthWest swells also contribute to the surf conditions, but you’ll want to play it safe and be prepared for tricky situations.

As you lock into a session, keep an eye out for the surrounding wildlife, like seals and dolphins; they love hanging around this area. Just be aware that you're not alone out here, as busloads of tourists sometimes make their way to catch a glimpse of the stunning scenery. Always respect the environment and be mindful of your surroundings when you surf at Cap de la Chèvre.
