Flic en Flac surf guide

Flic en Flac is a popular surf spot located on the western coast of Mauritius. It’s known for its beautiful beach and laid-back vibe. While it can get crowded, it offers some decent surf opportunities, especially for those who are familiar with the area. Surfers often come here looking for fun waves and to enjoy the scenic surroundings.

The best swell direction for surfing here is from the Northwest, but it can also handle swells from the Southwest and Northeast. When the waves are around 2ft (0.6 meters), you can find some rideable left and right reef breaks over live coral. The spot works well at low, mid, and high tide, making it versatile depending on the conditions. It’s a good choice for intermediate surfers, but be mindful of the rips that can take you close to the coral heads and rocks.

Winds from the Southeast are generally preferred for a better surfing experience. Given the reef setup, it’s important to watch out for urchins in the area. So, make sure to keep that in mind when you head out to surf. Enjoy the vibes and ride some waves at Flic en Flac!
