Le Borgne surf guide

Le Borgne is a surf spot located close to Pointe Boeuf that features a right reefbreak/rivermouth setup. It's known for its long, peeling rides, especially when you get the right conditions. The place offers some East wind protection, making it a decent spot when the wind is acting up. The surf has a mix of tapering rights, and if you're lucky, you might catch some short, playful lefts in the diesel blue water. There’s also a shallow left on the east side of town that can be tackled on a big NE swell, but most of the time, it's not the easiest to ride.

The surf at Le Borgne works best with a NorthEast swell direction, handling swell sizes down to about 1ft (0.3 meters). The waves break over an uneven reef, and you’re primarily looking at right-handers. The preferred wind direction is from the SouthWest, and you'll find the best conditions during low, mid, and high tides. This spot is suitable for intermediate surfers, so if you're still learning, make sure you're comfortable out there.

Getting to Le Borgne is pretty straightforward. You can paddle across the rivermouth from town, or if you're not into that, there’s a short ferryboat you can catch. The area has some cool old colonial architecture, with a few hotels like La Perle to check out. The local vibe is friendly, and the dialect has a unique Cuban twist to it. If you're planning to explore other spots, you can head west, but be cautious with the mountain pass during the rainy season since it can get pretty tricky.
