Cap Sainte-Marie is a surf spot located near Ankororoka, accessible mainly by 4WD from Fort-Dauphin. It's known for its rugged environment, with steep cliffs that create a unique and somewhat remote surfing experience. This spot attracts surfers looking for something off the beaten path, but be prepared for a bit of a trek to get there.
The surf here features long left waves that can really get going, particularly when the swell is coming from the south. This spot works well with swell sizes from about 2ft (0.6m) and handles swells coming from the southeast and southwest. The breaks occur over dead coral, which adds to the challenge, so it's more suited for expert surfers who can handle the heavy water conditions. While it can be a bit inconsistent, the waves can provide some exciting rides when it’s on, especially with southeast winds, making for optimal conditions at all tide heights.
Due to its remote location and challenging surf, Cap Sainte-Marie is best suited for experienced surfers who are comfortable in heavy water. The vertical cliffs and lack of easy access mean that this spot may appeal to those looking for an adventurous session away from the more crowded beaches.
