Friar's Bay surf guide

Friar's Bay is located just north of Marigot. It's known for its small, mellow waves, making it a decent spot for those looking to cruise on a longboard. The wave breaks over a large flat shallow reef, which makes it accessible, especially for beginners. It's best when there's a N-NW swell, but you can also catch some fun waves with N-NE swells. If you're feeling adventurous, you can look over the headland to the more challenging reefs to the south.

The surf at Friar's Bay handles swell sizes around 2ft (0.6m), which is perfect for beginners wanting to work on their skills. The waves can break both left and right, giving surfers options depending on their preference. The ideal wind direction is from the Southeast, so check the weather before heading out. This spot can work on low, mid, and high tides, which adds some versatility to your session.

Even though Friar's Bay doesn’t attract big crowds, it has a medium consistency wave, which means it might not be as reliable as some other spots. Still, it's a good option for a chilled day of surfing without the hustle and bustle. Enjoy your time out there!
