Fagamalo surf guide

Fagamalo is a surf spot located on the north coast, offering a range of waves for surfers. It’s a bit of a trek to get there, with a drive of over 1.5 hours from the south coast, which helps keep the crowds down. This location has a rocky lava section leading up to some nice coral areas further along, making it a mixed but interesting place to surf.

The surf at Fagamalo works best with swell coming from the north, northwest, or northeast. It can handle swell sizes starting as small as about 2 feet (0.6 meters) and features both left and right-breaking waves over live coral. The best wind conditions are blowing from the south, making it a solid choice for surfers looking for some fun sessions. This spot is great for intermediate surfers, and it works well during low, mid, and high tides, giving you plenty of options no matter the time of day.

Since Fagamalo is a bit remote, you can expect a low crowd factor, which is a nice bonus. You’ll find several breaks around here that vary from easy left walls to more challenging, bigger rights. Just be prepared for a long paddle to reach most spots from the shore, but it can be worth it when you find the right wave.
