Lagide surfspot characteristics

More about Lagide surfspot

The best spot on the north side of town is this consistent left hand reef break that is offshore with a S wind. It’s a mellow but long ride and crowds are certain. Low tide is sharp and shallow and high tide a little bouncy.

General: This long, super-fun left sits in front of the car-park at Lagide and is the first thing you see when you pull up. There's a mellow take off, before it walls up into a reeling top to bottom lefthander that peels and peels over a flat reef. There's a dry hair paddle out around the break. All this adds up to one thing - crowds. The take-off point is tiny and many try to take off deep /on the wrong side of the peak to steal a march on the masses. Tides: Best low to mid tide. Size: Waist high to overhead. Wind: S, SE Swell: N, NW, W. Bottom: Flat reef Paddling: Easy paddle out. Spot Rating: Super fun, long walling reef with smashable sections that stays fun even as size picks up.

A great wave for all levels, but the degree of crowd means it's best left to experienced surfers only.

Car park overlooks reef.

Consistent spot, best September to November and March to May.

Crowd Factor: Can get very busy. Local Vibe: Competitive.

Beware of urchins
