Faganeanea is a surf spot located across the bay that caters mainly to experienced surfers. The vibe here is pretty laid-back, but it’s good to know that the consistency isn’t the best, scoring about a 3 out of 10. It's not too crowded, which can be a plus when you're looking for some space on the waves. The setting is nice, but don’t expect epic surf every day.
This spot is known for its left-hand waves that break over live coral. It handles swell sizes up to 3 feet (about 0.9 meters) well, especially with SE swells. When there are rare NW winds, you can find some decent sections, although it can also be quite sectiony at times. The best times to catch waves here are during mid to high tide, and the expertise level required is pretty high, so it’s not ideal for beginners.
For the best results, aim for SE swell directions and lookout for the wind coming from the NW. Even though it’s not the most reliable spot, if the conditions align, Faganeanea can offer some fun sessions for those looking for a challenge.
