Surf: The first of many potentially excellent breaks before St Louis du Nord, Grand Ford is a long reef with fast and shallow right handers snapping over fire coral and looking more like the Indian Ocean than the Atlantic. Needs high period NE swell. Directions: 2 kms E of Anse a Foleur, park in front of the spot after the paved road ends (and becomes the mountain track to Le Borgne). Environment: The road skirts the coast W, making it easy to check various reef passes.
