El Mansourah is a surf spot located near a historic fortress, tucked away round the headland towards Kelibia. The area is known for its long, sandy beaches that catch a good amount of swell. It's a popular spot for surfers looking for an accessible wave in a relaxed environment.
Optimal swell comes from the Northeast, but you can also find decent waves when swells hit from the North or East. The spot typically handles swell sizes starting at about 1 ft (0.3 m), making it suitable for beginners. You’ll find beach breaks here, with waves rolling in both left and right. For the best experience, it's recommended to surf when the wind is coming from the Southwest, and the tide doesn't really matter much since the spot works at low, mid, and high tides.
This spot is great for new surfers looking to build confidence and improve their skills. The sandy bottom is forgiving, which can be helpful when you're learning. Just be aware of the crowd levels, as this spot can get some traffic, especially during the peak surf seasons.
